You need to pass jsonString to JSON.parse() and assign it to a variable you declare as jsonObject.
Like this:
const jsonString = '{"name": "Andrew", "languages": ["javascript", "swift", "java", "ruby", "html", "css", "qbasic"]}';
const jsonObject = JSON.parse(jsonString); // Converts the JSON string to a JSON object

I hope that helps.
Stay safe and happy coding!

Treehouse TeacherHey Azzie Fuzzie you'll need to use the
JSON.parse()
method to parse your son string instead of using.json()
