I dont see a "getHashTag()" method in your Treet class. I think you are trying to call the "getWords()" method in your Treet class.

You also have two similar methods in your Treet class which I dont think is right: I see "getWords()" and "geWords()

The second method I believe is mispelled. But im not sure why you have that in the first place anyways. Make sure your code aligns up to what is in the video.

I went back to fix my treet class https://w.trhou.se/begbwala5r but still got the exact same on line 16 and 17 of my Example class

This is from your example class:

for (String hastag   /* you missed spelled << */ : originalTreet.getHashTags()){    
    System.out.println(hashtag);
  }

As you can see, you mispelled "hashtag"

Everything else looks fine now. But if you still have an error, copy and paste the exact errors because as of now that is the only thing i can see wrong.

Thanks for the correction notice. I can't copy and paste the entire error message from the workspace console. Do you have a solution for this? It says Example class line 16 identifier @ the (, illegal start @ ". In line 17 it states illegal start of type.
