By using concatenation with the + operator like this:

name = 'Sam'
treehouse = 'Tree' + 'house'
email_greeting = treehouse + ' loves ' + name

Are you sure you're spelling everything correctly? Copy/paste mine into your code challenge and it should work. I tested it out before posting and it passed for me.
