}
let firstPost = Post(title: "A random title", author: "A random author", tag: Tag(name: "A random tag"))

10,413 PointsRyan, you are close. Just move the Post struct outside the curly braces of the Tag struct. You were getting an error because you cannot have a struct within a struct.
struct Tag {
let name: String
}
struct Post {
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
}
let firstPost = Post(title: "A random title", author: "A random author", tag: Tag(name: "A random tag"))

71,830 PointsThe problem is that you are trying to create firstPost inside the struct. Try this instead:
struct Post {
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
} // end of struct
let firstPost = Post(title: "A random title", author: "A random author", tag: Tag(name: "A random tag"))
