Can someone just give me the answer to this problem? I can reverse engineer the rest from there.

I don't really understand what I am being asked to do and I keep getting error messages no matter what I come up with.

Can someone just give me the answer so I can reverse engineer from there?

println.swift 
let language: String = "Swift"

println("Learning " + language)

Hello Jonathan :

This challenge is about string interpolation. 

let language: String = "Swift"


println("Learning \(language)") // This is string interpolation

Hope this works

I feel so stupid but I tried so many similar combinations.

Thanks for your help, man.

I'm not sure what the question is asking you. I'm assuming that you are first defining a constant language then you are using in to println Learning Swift

The answer would be to escape the constant within the string:

println("Learning (language)")
