What's the problem?
Both of your threads lack details. Do you have a homework prompt that can help us to help you?

2. I don't have anything that might help solve the problem.

I'm guessing that you are supposed to fill in another Spanish word for hello under 2, and then add 4 and another word for goodbye/
Is that correct?
what have you tried so far? (show your code)

spanish = "adios"

Well, the code is there, all you have to do is remove the non python lines
use variable names like en_hello, sp1_hello, sp2_hello
and formatted print statements like (for example):
en_tobacco = 'tobacco'
sp1_tobacco = 'tabaco'
sp2_tobacco = 'cigarrillo'
print('{} is {} in Spanish but could also be {}'.format(en_tobacco, sp1_tobacco, sp2_tobacco))

there are not all on the same line!
you must separate!
Then it will work fine.
