JavaScript Basics challenge story.js

I successfully completed the story.js challenge, with one little issue: I can't figure out how to make 'spaces' between two different variables that are being added together.

So if I have, for example:

var message = 'A ' + noun1 + ' and a ' + adjective1 + noun1 + 'the rest of the string';

document.write(message);

How do I make the browser print a space between adjective1 and noun1?

Thanks!

Hi Megan,

Just add a string containing a space between them.

adjective1 + " " + noun1

You can Add the Space in single quotes.

Like this:

var message = 'A ' + noun1 + ' and a ' + adjective1 + ' ' + noun1 + 'the rest of the string';
