Using Concatenation Operator (.)

We can simply use Concatenation Operator (.) to add or combine two or more strings in PHP.

No need to use any function or method for this.

Take a look at the code given below.

<?php
$string1 = 'Hello';
$string2 = 'World!';
$newString = $string1 . $string2;
?>

This will simple combine two strings but without space obviously.

To add space between two strings we can do something like this.

<?php
$string1 = 'Hello';
$string2 = 'World!';
$newString = $string1 . ' ' . $string2;
?>
