My answer is correct for this question. Its saying its wrong and its just a simple answer. var result = greeting("Tom")

I may somehow be looking past something or reading the question wrong but it seems clear. Not sure whats wrong with it.

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

    return (language ,greeting)
}

var result = greeting("Tom")

There is a flaw. Step one of the challenge has you modify the func. If you modify the function by making the return values (language: String, greeting: String) it passes you through step one, even though the func should be modified as (greeting: String, language: String). But then when you get to step two and try to implement the var result = greeting("Tom") it says the answer is incorrect. In a way it is but its hard to identify why without knowing to go back to the previous challenge because the part two answer is actually correct!
