Hi Raquel,

The property to use is .length, this is already available to use in JavaScript, so you do not need to create it yourself, you just need to know the property name to use.

You can try it out further here - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/length#try_it
