First, I strongly recommend against trying to copy other people’s solutions. It holds back your learning and it is a big source of bugs.

In this case, you have copied bad syntax for the hasOwnProperty() method and using bracket notation to access a property.

checkProp is a variable that holds the string name of the property you want to check for, so you should not add quotation marks around it.

Also, you shouldn’t put ()s around the return value. That is incorrect syntax.
