Thymeleaf: <label> to have dynamic text concatenated with static text Spring MVC

Question

I'm trying to append some text to a dynamic text as shown below:

<label th:text="Hello ${worldText}"></label>

But the UI throws:

TemplateProcessingException: Could not parse as expression: "Hello ${worldText}

Does anyone know how can I achieve this?

Answer 1

An easy solution would be to insert a span to the label:

<label>Hello <span th:text="${worldText}"></span></label>

But i would prefer to combine text and variables like this:

<label th:text="'Hello' + ${worldText}"></label>

Answer 2

Another straightforward solution is

<label th:text="${'Hello ' + worldText}"></label>
