String concatenation in Scala

Last Updated : 12 Jul, 2025

A string is a sequence of characters. In Scala, objects of String are immutable which means a constant and cannot be changed once created. when a new string is created by adding two strings is known as a concatenation of strings. Scala provides concat() method to concatenate two strings, this method returns a new string which is created using two strings. we can also use ‘+’ operator to concatenate two strings. 
Syntax: 
 

str1.concat(str2);

Or

"str1" + "str2";


Below is the example of concatenating two strings.
Using concat() method: This method appends argument to the string.
Example #1: 
 

Output: 
 

String 1:Welcome! GeeksforGeeks 
String 2: to Portal
New String :Welcome! GeeksforGeeks to Portal
This is the tutorial of Scala language on GFG portal


In above example, we are joining the second string to the end of the first string by using concat() function. string 1 is Welcome! GeeksforGeeks string 2 is to Portal. After concatenating two string we get new string Welcome! GeeksforGeeks to Portal.
  
Using + operator : we can add two string by using + operator.
Example #2: 
 

Output: 
 

After concatenate two string: Welcome toGeeksforGeeks


In above example, string 1 is Welcome to string 2 is GeeksforGeeks. By using + operator concatenating two string we get output After concatenate two string: Welcome toGeeksforGeeks.
