I don't understand

This is my code, I worked on it for a while and couldn't get the correct answer so I googled the instructions and found another person with the same question, and several answers. However even using the solutions that seemed to work for the other person I cannot get the site to let me pass, is there some error or typo that I'm missing?

Thanks.

structs.swift 
struct Person {
     let firstName: String
    let lastName: String
    func getFullName() -> String {
    return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
    }
}
let aPerson = Person(fistName: "james", lastName: "may")
let fullName = aPerson.getFullName()

Hey Luke Anderson,

There's just a small typo. You're missing the "r" for your first argument of the Person initialization.

struct Person {
     let firstName: String
     let lastName: String

    func getFullName() -> String {
       return "\(firstName) \(lastName)"
    }
}
// typo was here in firstName
let aPerson = Person(firstName: "james", lastName: "may")
let fullName = aPerson.getFullName()

Good Luck
