In french, does le, las, and les always mean "the"? For example, in the title les couleurs, does that mean "The Colors", or can it mean just "Colors?

Answer 1

It means the (by the way I take french to). Your absolutely correct!

Answer 2

Yes, this is the definite article "the" but often it is not translated into English. That's why "les couleurs" would probably be translated only as "colors."
