How to add a string along with the appendChild?

Question

How do I add a word in between two appendChild that are list items for example my code is the one below. This shows male 18, I want it to show male - age:18

x.appendChild (gender);
x.appendChild(age);
document.getElementById("list").appendChild(x);

Answer 1

You can use append to add text nodes to an element.

x.appendChild (gender);
x.append(" - age:");
x.appendChild(age);
