54,971 PointsYou need a means to combine your variable with the strings. One option is to use commas
favorite_color = input("What is your favorite color? ")
print("The color", favorite_color, "is a great color!")
another is to use the addition symbol:
favorite_color = input("What is your favorite color? ")
print("The color " + favorite_color + " is a great color!")
