They are saying that there is a compiler error but i am doing the exact same thing as what he showed me?

The challenge doesn't define anything named "noun". But it does define three other variables.

Both challenge tasks involve comparing one of the defined variables to another one.

You also won't need to create any literals in this challenge.
