wrong value in "result"

can somebody help me what's wrong with my code? the debugger doesn't show me any hints. Also in Playground the results look fine.

The challenge keeps saying "wrong value in 'result'", though. Any suggestions?

Thx

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

    let acdc = (language, greeting)

    return acdc
}

// Create a variable named result 
// and assign it the tuple returned from function greeting. 
// (Note: pass the string "Tom" to the greeting function.)

var result = greeting("Tom")

you have to tell it what parameter your putting it in. so in the end 

var result = greeting(person: "Tom")

try that if not then i think it might be in your return

Check the first step of the challenge again. The order in the tuple should be greeting, language, not language, greeting.
