Strings and Variables Attempt Says 6 Errors?

I am doing the strings and variables sections of the intro to Java lesson and I am attempting to write my Java but I keep getting a message that says I have 6 errors in the console. I am assuming it's a Syntax error but I don't understand it. Any guidance would be appreciated.

When using \n for a new line, put it inside of the "" like so

String message = "First line\nSecond line";
