String name = console.readLine("Adam");
String pastTenseVerb = console.readLine("hates");
console.printf("%s really %s this coding exercise.", name, pastTenseVerb);
I've tried so many different things. I don't know what to do.

1,176 PointsYes, I am. I've been working on this question for 3 and a half hours.

Courses Plus Student 16,352 PointsI've now taken the Multiple Format Strings challenge, with your code, using Windows + Chrome and Linux + Firefox, and your code has worked for me every time.
Try again to copy the code above and if it continues to fail, the only help I can offer is to contact support. They're really nice and often fast with a response (within 24 hours usually).
In the meantime, you can skip challenges at any time. There are a couple gray arrow buttons that can navigate you to the previous or next lesson.
Hope this helps,
Cheers

Courses Plus Student 16,352 PointsHi Adam,
I added markdown to help make your code more readable. Also, I copy / pasted your code into the challenge and it passes all three tasks. Are you still stuck on this?
