What is wrong here? I don't understand the instructions

Write a function called nameString() It should take name as a parameter. The function returns a string equal to "Hi, I am" + " " + name. Call nameString() by passing it your name, and use console.log to print the output.

var nameString = function (name ) { ("Hi, I am" + " " + name); };

nameString("vinson");

Try this:

var nameString = function (name) {

 return "Hi, I am" + " " + name;

};

nameString('vinson');
