You're looking for this:

String favoriteColor = "red";

Remember, you always need to capitalize the S in String

Could you link a picture/your updated code so I can see exactly what you're putting in?

You have missed the capital letter on String.

Also your variable doesn't need "red".

String color = "red";

Or you could name the variable favouriteColor.

String favouriteColor = "red";

If these examples don't work, could you please provide more info.
