Try to split the problem into small pieces so you can solve it . 1- first split the string ( use the split method) by space , so it will returns an array of words . 2- iterate through that array and return the first letter Hope this Helps

Have you solved this Kate Atanasoska ? Similar to what Med said, a good first step is to split the string by a space which returns an array of a word, or words. You can then get the number of words by getting the length of the array. Then, you can use some conditional logic like an if statement: if one word...else... You can use an index number in square brackets to take a word out of the array. Then on the word string, you can either use an index number in square brackets again to get an individual letter or use a string method like slice().
