I dont understand why this is wrong.

what is the error asking for? if type Tag is a string why and i un able to put a string in the instance tag: Tag

structs.swift 
struct Tag {
  let name: String
}

struct Post {
    let title: String
    let author: String
    let tag: Tag
}

let firstPost = Post(title: "My Coding Progress", author: "Tyler Dotson", tag: "T-Dot")

you have to create a new tag just like you are creating a post. tag isn't a string, it has an attribute called name that is a string. so the last part of your post instantiation should look like:

tag:Tag(name: "T-Dot"))
