How do I re-write this line into Swift?

I don't know how to re-write this in Swift, because I believe it is in Objective-C. Could someone re-write it for me?

yourLabelName.text = [[NSString] stringWithFormat:@"The number of votes for Crepes is %d", voteCount1["votes"]];

If you what you ask is how to set the text property of a UILabel here's a way in Swift:

var voteCount1 = NSDictionary(objectsAndKeys: 2,"votes");
var label = UILabel(frame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 21))
label.text = "The number of votes for Crepes is " + String(voteCount1["votes"]! as Int);
