Synthesis is the stage in the design flow which is concerned with translating your VHDL code into gates - and that's putting it very simply! First of all, the VHDL must be written in a particular way for the target technology that you are using. Of course, a synthesis tool doesn't actually produce gates - it will output a netlist of the design that you have synthesised that represents the chip which can be fabricated through an ASIC or FPGA vendor.
