take :: Int -> [a] -> [a]
drop:: Int -> [a] -> [a]

Both functions return a list, therefore you need the "++" operator to 
append two lists:
(++):  [a] -> [a] -> [a]

So this is what you get:

(I changed s and x becausee I associate s with a string and x with a number)

myremove :: String -> Int -> String
myremove s x = (take  (x-1) s) ++ (drop (x) s)

Notice that you have to drop x elements (and not x+1).
