I have no idea how to solve this challenge.

I am trying to resolve this challenge, where I need to create a tuple that returns both greeting and language rather than just the greeting. How do I do this? Thanks.

tuples.swift 
func greeting(person: String) -> String {
    let language = "English"
    let greeting = "Hello \(person)"

}

Hello Anne,

You can set the return value or values like this: (greeting: String, Language:String)...

Keep in mind once you tell the function you are going to return something you must return it

It should look something like return (greeting, language). See example below.

func greeting(person: String) -> (greeting: String, language: String) {

//Set your lets!


    return (greeting, language) // this is the important part : ) 
}

Let me know if you get stuck or need anymore help :)
