Tell us what’s happening:

I don’t understand what is being asked.
Step 10

Inside the template literal, add an embedded expression that contains the day variable.

Your code so far

const formattedDate = const day ;

It is asking you to use the day variable inside the template literal. It provided you the following:

const formattedDate = ``;

Notice the stuff between the equal sign and the semi-colon? They are called backticks (not the same as quotation marks). You are being asked to use the “day” variable inside the backticks. For example, say I have a variable called “message” and I want to use it in template literals, I could do something like the following:

const anotherMessage = `The old message was ${message}`

So use the example I showed above. I believe that should help.
