Hi Antonie, The parens in your question are not necessary. Your code could be written as:

name = "Antonie"
treehouse = "Tree" + "house"

Have a look at the Python docs/examples for str.format().

Otherwise, if there's something specific you were unsure about, ask that here. You shouldn't except others to just give you the answer. Some people might do that, but then you won't learn anything!
