I have try everithing but it still says 'try again'

I also tried to make another variable like in the first step and then greeting_list=x.split

greeting_list.py 
full_name = 'Armando Garcia Ochoa'
name_list = full_name.split()
greeting_list = 'Hi, I´m Treehouse'.split()

In your third line you have conflicting quote marks:

full_name = 'Armando Garcia Ochoa'
name_list = full_name.split()
greeting_list = "Hi, I'm Treehouse".split() #<-- change to " for enclosing marks. Fix single quote.

Update: The challenge is expecting a standard single quote (') within the greeting_list string instead of an acute mark: '&ampacute;' or '&#180;'
