Welcome to the forum!

Take “text” (you declared the variable earlier), access its “innerText” property by combining both with the dot notation (“.”) and assign it (“=”) to the string given in the task.

Hello, you must use the text variable created before and use dot notation with innerText, like this: text.innerText = ‘My text’
