How can I concatenate char pointers with the + operator in C?

Question

Is there any way to concatenate char pointers with the + operator in c?

I know that I can concatenate strings with strcopy() and strcat()

Concatenate two char* strings in a C program

But how can I concatenate char pointers with the + operator in c?(Maybe operator overloading works but I don't know how to overload + operator to concatenate char pointers)

even in c++ it isnt possible (at least not trivially) to overload for pointers — 463035818_is_not_an_ai, Apr 20 '18 at 19:35
C does not define the `+` operator for string concatenation, and you can't overload it to do so. You *have* to use `strcat` or an equivalent function. — John Bode, Apr 20 '18 at 19:43

You can't do that in C. C does not support operator overloading.
