You are very close. You need to add a period at the end of the greeting string, and you need to add a space at the beginning of the second string in the finalGreeting concatenation.

Code should look like: 

let name = "Nat"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."
let finalGreeting = "\(greeting)" + " How are you?"

Hope this helps.
