Using Objects for Lookups help

JavaScript
#1

I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong or if the tests aren’t running properly. Would anyone mind looking over this to let me know?
Thank you!


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

// Change this value to test
phoneticLookup("charlie");

I believe the separator inside the object is a comma, rather than a semicolon - thus it would be (…) “alpha”: “Adams”, “bravo”: “Boston”, (…). Then the last element should not have a semicolon, nor a comma. Hope this is helpful!
