Hello :

So basically the challenge is asking you to do a println() statement where it will have a result of "Learning Swift".

Since we already have a property declared called "language" with a string value of "Swift", we would want to use string interpolation to be able to print it's value within a string.

let language = "Swift"

println("Learning \(language)")

// Will print "Learning Swift" 

So, anything that you put in between quotes "", the system will take it as a string, so in order for us to tell the system to use the value inside the constant "language", we use string interpolation by inserting constants and variables inside the parenthesis \ (variables or constants).

Hope this helps you understand a bit better.
