Tell us what’s happening:
I’m not sure if I’m reading how to do this correctly or not. Is my way anywhere near what they are wanting?

Your code so far


function wordBlanks("dog", "big", "ran", "quickly") {
  // Your code below this line
  var result = "The " + wordBlanks[1] + " " + wordBlanks[0] + " "
   + wordBlanks[2] + " " + wordBlanks[3];

  // Your code above this line
  return result;
}

// Change the words here to test your function
wordBlanks("cat", "little", "hit", "slowly");

You changed code above the “Your code below this line”. You removed the arguments and put strings in. Additionally, wordBlanks is a function, not an array. I suggest going back a few challenges to review when arguments were introduced.

function wordBlanks(myNoun, myAdjective, myVerb, myAdverb) {
// Your code below this line
var result = "The " + wordBlanks[1] + " " + wordBlanks[0] + " "

  • wordBlanks[2] + " " + wordBlanks[3];

// Your code above this line
return result;
}

// Change the words here to test your function
wordBlanks(“cat”, “little”, “hit”, “slowly”);

You don’t have an array wordBlanks so you can’t use that notation. But you can reference those words using exactly the words written as parameters in the function

The words in the parenthesis:
