Cant figure out Task 3of 3 in "Python Basics" (variables) can anyone help

Finally, create a new variable named email_greeting that puts the treehouse variable and the name variable into the sentence "X loves Y" but with treehouse for X and name for Y. Don't forget your spacing!

name.py 
name = "charles"
treehouse = "Tree" + "house"
email_greeting == "Treehouse" + "name"

We don't put quotes around variables; text within quotes become Strings.

You also want to read the question carefully as you have to put the value of email_greeting into a specific sentence.

I don't want to give the answer to you right away, but feel free to ask for clarity if you're still having trouble.

Good luck. :)
