Tuples Challenge

I'm currently facing the first tuple challenge but I cannot seem to get past my errors about string convertibles. Can anyone give me any ideas to what I'm doing wrong ?

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

    return greeting
}

You need to return both language and greeting like this: return (language, greeting)

This is correct answer

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

    return (language, greeting)
}
