I don´t understand, what I have to do in this case?

I have a little problem, when I was answering the questions, I didn't unterstand what they mean saying: "Use the $fullname variable to display the following string to the screen. Use an escape character to add a newline to the end of the string. 'Rasmus Lerdorf was the original creator of PHP'.

Note: I don't speak English a lot, but I try.

index.php 
<?php

//Place your code below this comment
$firstName = 'Rasmus';
$lastName = 'Lerdorf';

$fullname = $firstName . ' ' . $lastName;

$fullname = $firstName;

echo $fullname;

?>
