I think you misunderstood the challenge.
First, when you write for loop you are not looping at the function loopy, but at the iterable items.
Second, the challenge is asking you to print items not function loopy.
Third, when you call a print function it needs () after print. So if you want to print items you should write print(items) not print items

You are just about there. Basically, loopy is the function, but you want to loop the stuff inside the function (the 'items'). In addition, you want to call the function and add an item. Review my code below:
def loopy(items):
for thing in items:
print(thing)
loopy('car')
The 'for thing in items', is the loop. For every 'thing' that is within 'items', it will print. When I call the function, I add the item 'car'. This will spell out each character within car.
I hope this helps out!
