What is wrong

Hi Evelyn, When defining the variables' greet method, you should use this.genericGreet for both instead of the name, otherwise for example andrew.genericGreet will always return "Hello, my name is Andrew". This could be a problem if you change his name, for example. Here's what the code should look like for Andrew:

I'm sure you can figure out what to do with Ryan from here. Hope this helps!

 var genericGreet = function() {
        return "Hello, my name is " + this.name;
      }

      var andrew = {
        name: "Andrew",
        greet: this.genericGreet
      }

Hi Evelyn,

Three things:

First, you left out the comma after "Ryan", second, greet: andrew.genericGreet should be greet: genericGreet, and third, third is a lot like second, I'll bet you can figure it out.

Thank you Laura and Jeff. I tried the suggestions that both of you provided(greet:genericGreet and greet:this.genericGreet) and both worked. Is one better to use than the other? I am guessing not but rather a preference. Can one of you clarify?

Thanks in advance
