Remember, tuples look like this: (firstItem, secondItem)

func greeting (person: String) -> (greeting: String, language: String) {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
return (greeting, language)
}
var result = greeting("Tom")
Your return type needs to be a tuple of type (String, String), that uses the strings for greeting and language as it's parameters. Then in the return statement, you must return both greeting and language as the return is specified at the top in the function greeting. Returning (language, greeting) correctly matches the form of a tuple.
