Objects/things in Spanish are either male or female. If you take a look at the list below you'll see the male and female words indicated by an (m) or an (f) after the name of the object/thing in Spanish.

You can see, for example, that the word for ‘pig’ is ‘cerdo’. 'Cerdo' has an (m) after it, which means that the word ‘cerdo’ is male. If you wanted to say ‘a pig’ you would put the word 'un' ( meaning 'a') before ‘cerdo’: 'un cerdo'. Or if you wanted to say 'the pig' you would put the word 'el' (meaning 'the') before the word ‘cerdo’: 'el cerdo'.

Also, for example, on the list you can see that the word for ‘goat’ is ‘cabra’. 'Cabra' has an (f) after it, which means that the word 'cabra' is female. If you want to say ‘a goat’ you would put the word 'una'(meaning 'a') before the word ‘cabra’: 'una cabra'. Or if you wanted to say 'the goat' you would put the word 'la' (meaning 'the') before the word ‘cabra’: 'la cabra'.
