stuck at challenge 1 of 1 opject oriented php basic

I got this below warning. Is the fish's flavor in the return value from getInfo? Use $this to reference the current object.

fish.php 
<?php

class Fish
{
    public $common_name;
    public $flavor;
    public $record_weight;

    public function getinfo()
    {
      return "A" . $this->common_name . " is an " . $this->flavour . " flavoured fish. The world record weight is"  . $this->record_weight;
    }
}

$bass = new Fish();
$bass->common_name = "Largemouth Bass";
$bass->flavor = "Excellent";
$bass->record_weight = "22 pounds 5 ounces";

echo $bass->getinfo();

?>

The variable name on line 11:

return "A" . $this->common_name . " is an " . $this->flavour . " flavoured fish. The world record weight is"  . $this->record_weight;
    }

should be

$this->flavor
