@Merlia08 "les" est le pluriel de "le" et "la" comme en espagnol pour "los" et "las" qui sont le pluriel de "el" et "la", se sont des articles définis, alors que "des" est le pluriel de "un" et "une" comme en espagnol avec "unos" et "unas", se sont des articles indéfinis
exemples :
"Le mouton du fermier est dans le champ"
"Les moutons du fermier sont dans le champ"
"Il y a un mouton dans le champ"
"Il y a des moutons dans le champ"
