Hello,

When you concatenate you are adding something to the end of a string or appending something to a variable. You use the period (.) to concatenate two things (strings more or less) to each other like the following below:

<?php

$hello = "Hello there, ";
$name = "Michael";
echo $hello . $name;

?>

That would print "Hello there, Michael".

The challenge is asking for something sort of like what I did. You can also use the double-quote notation to add a variable into a statement being echoed out like so:

<?php

$name = "Michael";
echo "Hello there, $name";

?>

Hopefully this has helped you understand what the challenge is asking of you.

Cheers!
