Having trouble with understanding loop syntax

I don't get what I need to do next, Is this just another instruction error?

loop.py 
hellos = [
    "Hello",
    "Tungjatjeta",
    "Grüßgott",
    "Вiтаю",
    "dobrý den",
    "hyvää päivää",
    "你好",
    "早上好"
]
for word in hellos:
      print(word += " World")

Jamal, where your able to resolve your issue with this challenge? I encourage you to keep trying until you can resolve the challenge.

Since this was a "Python Basics" challenge, I think the issue was using a "for-loop" to print out the list.

Your almost there Jamal. Good Job!

However, you want to perform "Concatenation" of strings in this case, which is only a "+" sign. If you a have not figured it out already, try updating the print statement to the following:

print(word + " World")

Thanks ~rbp

.format() should be used instead of concatenation
