confused

by modifying the tuple to String, String, and returning both greeting and language I thought this would work

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

    return greeting, language 
}

Hey there Robert Gunn,

You're missing the parenthesis in the return statement.

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

     return (greeting, language)
}

Goodluck!

Hi Robert,

If you try to save the challenge task 1 of Tuples. I tried this and it worked:

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

    return (greeting, language)
}
