error "Class, struct, or interface method must have a return type"

i feel like i'm forgetting something simple. I'm pretty sure i did the constructor just like he did in the tutorial before this challenge.

Frog.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Frog
    {
        public readonly int TongueLength;

        public TongueLength(int tongueLength)
        {
        int TongueLength = tongueLength;
        }
    }
}

Hi there! Would it be encouraging to know that you're only off by one word? It asks you to make a constructor for a Frog that accepts a tongue length. But what you've constructed here is a TongueLength that accepts a tongue length. And we don't have a TongueLength class :smiley:

So... rethink this part:

  public TongueLength(int tongueLength)  //This should be a Frog that has a tongueLength

Give it another shot! :sparkles:
