Hi Yes,

You can concatenate strings like this in Python (let's imagine we have a variable called variable containign another string):

"This is an " +  "example of " + "concatenating using strings and variables" +  variable

You see how you can use the + sign to add to a string? On the task you're on they want you to create a variable called name storing your name, and then create another variable called subject that concatenates the string "Treehouse loves " with the name variable.

Does that make any sense to you?

I hope that helps,

Jonas
