I am giving it the tuple with greeting and language but it tells me that I am not.
func greeting(person: String) -> (String, String) {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
return (greeting, language)
}

, because the return result isn't String anymore.

func greeting(person: String) -> (greeting: String, language: String) {
let language = "English"
let greeting = "Hello \(person)"
return (greeting, language)
}
