unexpected 'Bummer!'

the attached code should be correct. I have no idea why it's not accepted...

strings.swift 
// Enter your code below
let name = "Nils"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
let finalGreeting = "\(greeting). How are you?"

Hey Nils,

It's not that your code is wrong... it's that it is not what the instructions ask for. The final task explicitly asks you to create the string

by concatenating the greeting string with a second string literal.

It wants the string created with concatenation, but you are creating it using interpolation. Just change that up and you're good.

Keep coding! :dizzy: :)
