You are not only declaring a variable but also assigning it to a string.
An example of a declared variable would be var heyMatthew;
In general:
var variableNameHere;
So my javascript should be var heyMatthew; right?
Read it again, made an edit accounting for that
var variableNameHere;
Replace variablenameHere with the variable name they are giving you (myName
). Is it better now?

it doesnt work. OKAy so i put in var variable"Matthew" with and without the quotes and it still doesnt work and i put in the semicolon
just give me yours
and i just change the name thanks
It’s important to differentiate what is what. A variable declaration is this:
var myName;
Don’t assign it. Just write that, and see if it passes.
Once you pass, review the previous replies I’ve made, you’ll get the idea much better

You have been told to declare a variable.
Let us use a metaphor. You are told to buy a box into which you intend to store some books. So buy the box using var, then name(myBooks) it so that you can easily identify it, E.g var myBooks.
You have successfully bought a box(var) and named it(myBooks).
That’s same as declaring a variable.
