Python Python Basics (2015) Python Data Types String concatenation

didnt understand the task

hey, I didnt understand the 2\3 task.

strings.py

What is the task's question?

The first part was easy. I want you to help me make a string to use for an email greeting. To start, we need a variable named name that's assigned to your name. Deja vu, huh?

name = "Tal"

the second part that I couldn't understand: OK! Make a new variable named subject that concatenates (uses the + sign) the string "Treehouse loves" and your name variable. You've probably received an email or two with this subject already!

thank you for your help:)
