var lookup = {

alpha:"Adams",
bravo:"Boston",
charlie:"Chicago",
delta:"Denver",
echo:"Easy",
foxtrot:"Frank"

};

result = lookup[val];

Nothing but the last two conditions are met. I don't know how this code is working for anyone else.

Wow, their questions can be confusing at times.

But I believe it is crafted that way to make one really think.

thank you so much. I sensed that the solution would be quite simple, but could not formulate it clearly...

This is the right code:

// Setup
function phoneticLookup(val) {
var result = "";

// Only change code below this line
var lookup ={
alpha: "Adams",
bravo: "Boston",
charlie: "Chicago",
delta: "Denver",
echo: "Easy",
foxtrot: "Frank"
};
result = lookup[val]; // Square brackets

// Only change code above this line
return result;
}

phoneticLookup("Charlie");

Thank you! I was stuck on that. I know I had it right, but something was missing.
