Hi there,

The order of the variables you are using to initialize email_greeting should be the other way around, since the challenge is looking for "Treehouse loves Name", rather than "Name loves Treehouse". Also, your message needs spaces (so that you have something that looks more like a sentence, rather than one long word), and the word 'loves' to complete the message.

email_greeting = treehouse + " loves " + name

Hope this helps.

thank you, i have a better understanding of this now. i do have one question. why do you need quotes around "love" do you need quotes cause its a variable?
