word = list(word)
Also, the if statement should read :
if letter.lower() in vowels:
Hope this is helpful

Python Web Development Techdegree Student 979 PointsHi Stuart,
Thanks, there is progress, but still not passing.
vowels = ("a", "e", "i", "o", "u")
def disemvowel(word): word = list(word) for letter in word: if letter.lower() in vowels: word.remove(letters) return word

Python Web Development Techdegree Graduate 22,874 Pointshi there, from what I can read above - have you used letters instead of letter?
word.remove(letters)
