Can't figure out how to create a tuple using the language and greeting func.

How to create a tuple? For putting the language and greeting func. together

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


    return greeting, language
}

Just need to change the return of the function to a tuple. This function will be returning two values. Language of type String and greeting of type String. Therefore the function needs to have two returns of the same type (String, String) This can also be written with return names... (language: String, greeting: String)

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

    return (greeting, language)
}
