Hors d'oeuvres are like small snacks before a big meal. Usually they are finger foods brought around by waiters at a fancy event, and sometimes they are small plates served before the main meal. Anything can be an hors d'oeuvre. They are defined by the size and quantity.
Common hors d'oeuvres are things like miniature quiches, or tasty fillings inside puff pastry, or chicken wings, pigs in blankets, cheese and crackers, or crudites (vegetable sticks).
I would assume a heavy hors d'oevres would be something rich like artichoke dip. A light hors d'oevres would be something like a platter of crudites.
The correct spelling is hors d'oeuvres.
Horderves or Hors D'oeurvre comes from the French which means 'apart from the main work' which in most cases is also known as an appetizer in the states. If there is an extended period between when guests arrive and when the meal is served (for example during a cocktail hour), these might also serve the purpose of sustaining guests during the wait, in the same way that apertifs are served as a drink before meals. Hors D'oeurvre are sometimes served with no meal afterward. This is the case with many reception and cocktail party events.
