You always need to use template literals when you are asked to create a string with a variable in it. (Template literals use backticks and not double quotes)

3

you need to wrap The in quotes, before the +. Here you are not concatenating anything because + is part of the string instead of being between strings

You didn’t close quotes after the first word, or open quotes before your last words. Remember spacing in the words as instructed.

You also have an error in the first bit of your monster name code. Look how the variable is defined earlier on in the code.

You need spaces in there

the required string is "The " with a space before the closing quote

8

Also give a space between quote mark " and the word attacks.
