I know this is probably dead simple, but I am having a heck of a time understanding what is being asked.

var genericGreet = function() {
        return "Hello, my name is " + this.name;
      }

      var andrew = {
        name: "Andrew"
      }

      var ryan = {
        name: "Ryan"
      }```JS

So, am I creating a new greet method?
I want to figure it out, I just need a little hint.

Thanks.

Blake

Awesome, thanks. Just went over the forum discussion on it. Makes total sense now!
