Why does my code not work? it works in my python shell but not in this quiz application

Bummer! unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'NoneType' and 'str'

However, i did tthis on my computers python shell, and it worked as I wanted it to.

loop.py 
hellos = [
    "Hello",
    "Tungjatjeta",
    "Grüßgott",
    "Вiтаю",
    "dobrý den",
    "hyvää päivää",
    "你好",
    "早上好"
]

    print(str(word)) + (" World")

You are very close. The print command needs to encompass both strings. The current parens are trying to concatenate the return value of the print, which is None, to the string " World". Since the hello is already a string, it does not need to be wrapped in str(). Clean up the parens and it should pass.

Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!
