Hi there,

You want to iterate through hellos, so that comes after the in. It is the list!

So, you have a list of words. You want to pull out each word in turn from that list. You use a for loop. 

for word in hellos:

This will work through all of hellos and put each word in the word variable. In this challenge you want to print out the word plus " World". So you need to amend your print command a little to print word + " World".

Something like:

for word in hellos:
    print(word + " World")

I hope that helps,

Steve.

for hellos in list:
    print(hellos)

# 1st -> in python, first comes the working variable, then the list, and yours should be interchanged
# 2nd -> list is a keyword, try using, a different working variable
# 3rd -> you are trying to print the whole list, what the output want is like on the 1st iteration is "Hello World"
