This should fix the code:
println("Hello " + greeting("Fred"))
However, I don't remember string concatenation being taught before that lesson. I think you might also want to check that you're doing exactly what the exercise asks.
If this code doesn't complete the challenge, please paste the text of the challenge directions so I can help you compare your answer to that.
