What you have is technically correct, and even the preferred way. However, the challenge is looking to see you understand string concatenation as well as string interpolation. Recall that string concatenation is where you add strings together using the + operator:

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