>Solution :

def functionone():
    return "This word from functionone!"

def functiontwo():
    print(functionone())

Or even:

def functionone():
    return "This word from functionone!"

def functiontwo(msg):
    print(msg)

functiontwo( functionone() )

You CAN do what you ask using globals, but this is poor practice and leads to difficult-to-find errors.

def functionone():
    global mystring
    mystring = "This word from functionone!"

def functiontwo():
    print(mystring)
