Declare msg with "const msg =" or "let msg =". That what I think is missing.

Finally, convert the string stored in role to uppercase letters. The final msg string should look similar to this: "Carlos Salgado: DEVELOPER".

let firstName = ("Wil"); let lastName = ("Brein"); let role = ('developer'); let shout = role.toUpperCase(); let msg = firstName + " " + lastName + ": " + shout;

console.log(msg);

Each "let" is the start of a new line
