It's not working

The code I put in doesn't work and it seems like it's right, but it keeps saying it's returning the wrong value.

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

    return (greeting, language)
}

let result:(String, String) = greeting("Tom")

Hey swiftdev,

You're really close! You just need to fix your assignment of the value from the greeting function call to the result constant.

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

    return (greeting, language)
}

// result will now be a tuple of (greeting: String, language: String)
// with the values "Hello Tom" and "English"
let result = greeting("Tom")

Hope this helps! Good Luck!
