It might be at the end of this line, go ahead and add one. If that doesn't help feel free to post your code and I can look at it and try to find out where it is.
Thanks.

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 35,467 PointsBased on your code you have 2 opening curly braces, one after your class declaration and the other after your public static void main, however I am only seeing one closing brace. Go ahead and add another } at the bottom of your code, it should fix this.

console.printf("%s is a %s %s. ", name, adjective, noum);
