You missed the instruction:

> Use backslashes…

You also misspelled “string” and are missing a quote.

Now I did figure it out, if anyone is having a hard time with this one the answer is just  
const myStr= “I am a “double quoted” string inside “double quotes”.”;  
you just have to be careful with the spacings and spellings.😃

Yeah, it confuses people at first - especially if you’re not used to coding and escape characters - that’s why there is a lesson.
