Linda was an example. You have to use your name variable. And you could do something like this

// Enter your code below
let name = "Tenzin"
let greeting = "Hi there,  \(name)"

You don't need the last two lines. Instead, you need to insert name into greeting so that greeting takes on the following format:

"Hi there, [VALUE OF NAME]."

To do this, you just need to use string interpolation the way you used string interpolation in your last line of code:

let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."

I hope this helps!

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

This passed for both challenges. You just need a regular concatenate
