The method readLine
needs an argument. Try using ””
or some other string.
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!!

Treehouse Moderator 68,441 PointsUsing your code, this passes the first two tasks:
String name = console.readLine("Enter your name. ");
// String pastTenseVerb = console.readLine();
String pastTenseVerb = console.readLine("Enter an adjective: ");

String pastTenseVerb = console.readLine("Enter an adjective: ");
