How do I add "World"?

I can't figure out how to add the word "World" to the loop for each hello in a language.

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

There's two ways I can think of offhand:

  • you could use the format function
  • you could use simple string concatenation (+)

Thanks Steven. I've tried:

for hello in hellos:
    print(hello + " World")

but it says there is a syntax error.

Edit I figured it out. Thanks for the help!

That's exactly what I was hinting in the second suggestion. I even pasted your code into the challenge and it passed.

Were you careful to add that code after the provided array, and not make any changes to the array itself?
