Why is it saying this: "Bummer! Your function needs to return a tuple with elements named 'greeting' and 'language'."-??

Can please somebody help me. I can't complete the challenge.... What did I do wrong?

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

    return (language, greeting)
}
var result = greeting("Tom")

Hello Kevin:

Here is what you want to do. You need to return a tuple of two strings.

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

    return (language, greeting)
}


var result = greeting("Tom”)
