You’re assigning a word to a block that requires a list.

I can help you fix this but you need to provide either (1) A link to your project and tell me the name of the screen where this happens or (2) a screenshot of the blocks that are causing this.

the screen names are entriesNew and entriesOld

You need to set the list variable to an empty list if it has no value yet (null) and then when the user submits the text input, you need to add a new item to the list:

When I preview it and type in a phrase and press return and then repeat that once more, it lists the two entries as separate rows in a simple list, as I would expect from those blocks:
