How can I write an AWK so it could print some fixed strings and concatenate that with other words from an input file. Also having a string like "go" in the next line in the output file as below:

Example:

A fixed string like: "Hello my"

and the input file is:

friend
mother
father
son
sister
brother

the output would be:

Hello my friend.
go
Hello my mother.
go
Hello my father.
go
Hello my son.
go
.
.
.

Thanks a lot,

Code:

awk '{ print "Hello my " $0; }' myfile.txt

Thanks Ikon for your comment.

I also need a new line with the string "go" to be appeared at the next line. example:


Hello my friend.
go
Hello my mother.
go

how can i acheive that?

Thanks,

Code:

awk '{ print "Hello my " $0 "\ngo";}' test.txt
