Treehouse StaffHi Jason,
The <p> tag is the HTML code for paragraph, so this will insert the finished sentence as a paragraph text in the HTML file.
Hope this cleared things up.

Paragraphs are usually represented in visual media as blocks of text separated from adjacent blocks by blank lines and/or first-line indentation, but HTML paragraphs can be any structural grouping of related content, such as images or form fields.

2,493 PointsIt's a HTML tag which puts your text into a paragraph (on the webpage). If you haven't done the HTML & CSS basics I'd recommend that - it'll make more sense.
You could also use <h1></h1> or <h2></h2> tags etc. for different formatting options.
