it's not working. I think i need another line of code but it only asks for 2 lines. Help!

The second code is where I'm running into a problem

strings.swift 
// Enter your code below
let name = "Benarge Igwe"
let greeting = "Hi there,+(name)"

You seem to be mixing interpolation with concatenation.

The challenge asks you to use interpolation which doesn't need the addition operator (+) to insert a value.

You're almost there! You just need to check the syntax for interpolation. Have a look at the documentation.
