WHY DOESN'T THIS WORK?! I'M GOING TO PULL MY HAIR OUT.

I've looked up the question, and tried every suggestion, but nothing is working.

loop.py
hellos = [
    "Hello",
    "Tungjatjeta",
    "Grüßgott",
    "Вiтаю",
    "dobrý den",
    "hyvää päivää",
    "你好",
    "早上好"
]

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

You have to print out hello, not hellos. Hello is the "item" in the list "hellos".

So "hello" is equal to hello, "Tungjatjeta" is equal to the next hello, and so on and so forth. Does that make sense?

hellos = [
    "Hello",
    "Tungjatjeta",
    "Grüßgott",
    "Вiтаю",
    "dobrý den",
    "hyvää päivää",
    "你好",
    "早上好"
]

for hello in hellos:
    print(hello + " world")

Should be the correct answer, passed for me :)
