im confused on what I did wrong here. it looks exactly how it was explained

Your code so far

let adjective = "big";
let noun = "person";
let verb = "run";
let place = "philly";
let adjective2 = "small";
let noun2 = "dog";
const firstStory = "Once upon a time. there was a(an) "  + adjective + + noun + who loved to eat + noun2 +. "The " + noun + "I lived in a " + place + "and had " + adjective2 + "nostrils that blew fire when it was " + verb + "."
console.log("First story: " + firstStory) +
adjective = "round"
noun = "alien"
verb = "walk"
place = "new york"
adjective2 = "fat"
noun2 = "boy"
const secondStory = "Once upon a time, there was a(n) " + adjective + + noun + "who loved to eat " + noun2 + "." "The " + noun + "lived in a " + place + "and had " + adjective2 + "nostrils that blew fire when it was " + verb + "."

Welcome to the forum @raykeith!

Please review how to concatenate strings and variables: Introduction to Strings - What Is String Concatenation, and How Can You Concatenate Strings with Variables? | Learn | freeCodeCamp.org

I’m seeing this in the console:

SyntaxError: unknown: Missing semicolon. (7:83)

   5 | let adjective2 = "small";
   6 | let noun2 = "dog";
>  7 | const firstStory = "Once upon a time. there was a(an) "  + adjective + + noun + who loved to eat + noun2 +. "The " + noun + "I lived in a " + place + "and had " + adjective2 + "nostrils that blew fire when it was " + verb + "."
     |                                                                                    ^
   8 | console.log("First story: " + firstStory) +
   9 | adjective = "round"
  10 | noun = "alien"

Happy coding!

it keeps saying declare adjective as a variable but im doing that

you have a syntax error, so all tests are failing, please fix the syntax error, then you can check what the tests say
