First, fix the unmatched quotes in the last part of exp.
exp = {"I do not", "understand", "this"}
Use Riffle to insert a linebreak in between each part, and then use
StringJoin to combine into a single string.
withbreaks=Riffle[exp, "\n"]
text=StringJoin[withbreaks]
Export["filename.txt", text]
I like to use SetDirectory[NotebookDirectory[]]
before importing/exporting, so that the directory is the same place
where the working notebook is saved.
