It's not clear what method you're intending to use to combine the string, but:

  • for concatenation, you need a "+" operator between the terms but won't need braces
  • a template string must start with a "$" symbol and have only one pair of quotes around the whole thing
  • with either method, you won't use the term "string" (or the parentheses) in the return statement.
