[split] invalid syntax
#1
Okay so I have been following a YouTube video on writing out this code and I am getting this error when I test run the program:

[File "C:/Users/Vladislaus/PycharmProjects/Morgana.py", line 5
except ImportError:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax]

The code is: [mport speech_recognition as sr
import pyttsx3

engine = pyttsx3.init()
except ImportError:
print('Requested driver is not found.')
except RuntimeError:
print('Driver fails to initialize.')]

I am not sure how the syntax has an error?

Can someone help me with this?

Thank you for your time.

print('Driver fails to initialize.')]
what is the bracket at the end for, that's your syntax error:

Larz, I think the error is because there is no try:
the bracket at the end is something left from attempt to put some tags. see also there is opening one in the beginning of the code. Same for the error message
