Here's the same thing you wrote yourself, but this time properly quoted to make sure Markdown isn't concealing something funny:
name = "Alex"
subject = "Treehouse loves " + name
I can assure you that it passes the challenge.

231,236 PointsIt looked the same to me also, but perhaps there was some funny character in there that Markdown was not showing. Otherwise, I have no idea!

426 Pointsformat() on the string "Treehouse loves {}" to put your name into the placeholder. Assign this to the variable subject (so start with subject =). my answer:
name = "Alex" subject = "treehouse loves {}" .format (name)
But nt working Sombody have ideya why? Thanks

231,236 PointsThis challenge is specifically about concatenation (using the "+" sign). What you've done here would be functionally equivalent in practice, but it's not what the instructions asked for here and won't pass the challenge.
I'm still suspecting that odd character codes are involved. Did you try cut-and-paste directly from the box in my first answer ?
