What am I doing wrong in "Privacy and Methods"?

Question

Here are my Workspaces :

Example.java

public class Example {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Your amazing code goes here...
        System.out.println("We are making a new Pez Dispenser.");
        PezDispenser dispenser = new PezDispenser();
        System.out.printf("The dispenser character is %s\n",
                          dispenser.getCharacterName());
    }
}

PezDispenser.java

public class PezDispenser {
  private String mCharachterName = "Yoda";

  public String getCharachterName() {
    return mCharachterName;
  }
}

This is my Error :

-
Example.java:8: error: cannot find symbol                                              
                          dispenser.getCharacterName());                               
                                   ^                                                   
  symbol:   method getCharacterName()                                                  
  location: variable dispenser of type PezDispenser

You have too many h's in getCharachterName

Hmm...in PezDispenser.java your method is called getCharachterName. Double check the spelling?
