I'm sure not everyone knows what the word concatenate means so I'll start this post with a screenshot of quick Google Search.

Description:

CONCATENATE function in Excel to concatenate (join) strings in a chain or series. Instead of using CONCATENATE, simply use the ampersand & operator.
CONCATENATE will join texts together based on the order specified.

If we need to put texts that are not in a cell, we can add texts by enclosing these texts with double quotation marks " "

---

Function Structure:

=CONCATENATE(text1, [text2])

Another way to do this is using this structure below:

=text1 & text2

---

Argument Breakdown:

text1 - The first text to join together

[text2] - Next text to join together. Square bracket means this is an optional argument. Also you can concatenate as many texts as you want

But keep in mind that functions has a 255 character limit.
