Hi Ermias, that's quite a name you've got there! The Code Challenge says, Currently our greeting function only returns a single value. Modify it to return both the greeting and the language as a tuple. Make sure to name each item in the tuple: greeting and language. We will print them out in the next task.

func greeting(person: String) -> (language: String, greeting: String) {

We return both the greeting and language by adding it before curly braces.

and then "modify" it to return the greeting and language

return (greeting, language)

So your final code should look like so:

func greeting(person: String) -> (language: String, greeting: String) {
    let language = "English"
    let greeting = "Hello \(person)"

    return (greeting,language)
}
