Why is the code for manipulate strings not checking the last objective right?

app.js 
let firstName = "Harold";
let lastName = "Steen";
let role = 'developer';
let msg = 'firstname ' + 'lastname ' + 'role';
console.log = msg

Hi Harold I commented your code where I think you made some errors

          let firstName = "Harold";
let lastName = "Steen";
let role = 'developer';
// firstName and lastName are variable and because of that they shoudn't be include within the single quotes
//The variables are case sensitive, meaning lastname is different than lastName
//The challenge require a phrase, so msg should include whitespaces and ":"
let msg = 'firstname ' + 'lastname ' + 'role';
console.log = msg
          ```
