Hi, "Freundin" means girlfriend. The ending "in" usually refers to a woman, for example: "Lehrerin" - female teacher "Biologin" - female biologist "Freundin" can refer to both, a female friend and girlfriend (as in your partner) "Freund" means friend, again it can be both, a male friend and boyfriend (as in your partner) "Freunde" is plural, so it refers to a group of friends. The group can be of mixed gender. For example: "Meine Freunde sind super" - my friends are great
