Welcome to the forum @aadi_1
The instructions are asking you to use a character class for each group.

For next time, describe the issue in your own words. Learning to communicate problems is a part of becoming a web developer.

Happy coding

la variable tendria que quedar deesta forma :
const freeRegex = /fr[e3][e3] mon[e3]y/i; // ya que el enunciado te esta pidiendo actualizar las " E ".
