Medinan suras of the Qur'an are those suras which were revealed at Medina.
They are mostly placed at the beginning of the Qur'an, typically have more and longer ayat. usually address believers (oh ye who believe.)

The Makki sura are the chronologically earlier suras of the Qur'an that were revealed at Makkah but usually placed after the Medinan suras.
