Why am I greeting an error cs1519 if I'm supose to add curly bracer to the method?

Program.cs 
using System;

class Program
{

    // YOUR CODE HERE: Define a method named Spell. Remember to use the
    // "static" and "void" keywords: "static void Spell" (without quotes)...

    static void Spell();
    {
        Console.WriteLine("c");
        Console.WriteLine("a");
        Console.WriteLine("t");
        }
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Spell();


    }
}

The spell method you've declared has a semi colon at the end of it, that's why you're getting your problem.

When declaring a method you don't need a semi colon, you just need the argument brackets '()' followed by the curly brackets '{}' which you wrap your method code in. When calling the method you then follow it with a semi colon, just like you correctly did in Main.
