Can someone help me figure out how to add the second element to the tuple?

After watching the 8:04 video several times, I'm still not able to write the code to add the second element to the tuple correctly. I'm probably making it too difficult. Thanks!

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

    return ("greeting", "language")
}

Hi Ray,

I think you need to take one parameter into the function and return two.

Something like this:

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

    return (greeting, language)
}
