I don't understand this task below please help:

OK! Make a new variable named subject that concatenates (uses the + sign) the string "Treehouse loves" and your name variable.

You've probably received an email or two with this subject already!

strings.py 
name = "Ash"

The task is to, create 2 strings and then concatenate them using plus sign.

Here is the sample code.

name = "DejaVuHuh"


#Teacher wants to show string addition:
#str1 = str2 + str3 (concatenation can be done using plus sign

#Lastly remember that you need to append a extra space so that string makes sense.
subject = "Treehouse loves " + name;

Hope this helps!
