syntax trouble shooting - RadicalRhno353 - Sep-11-2020

Hi! I am new to python (and coding in general) and for one of my first projects I am making a hangman program. but i can't seem to get my syntax to work. I don't know if this matters but I am using repl.it python engine. Any form of help would be greatly appreciated! Here is my code
life = len(HANGMAN) - 1
words = ["hangman", "backpack", "bodywash", "clothing", "computer", "python", "program", "glasses", "sweatshirt", "sweatpants", "mattress", "friends", "clocks", "biology", "algebra", "suitcase", "knives", "ninjas", "shampoo", "chemistry", "sololearn", "bottle", "physics","flowers’,‘touch’,"machine","delirious","rambunctious","fixed","scab","girls","humdrum","lizards","spoon","rush","testy","homeless","clammy","pest","purring","leave","gun","lose","fall","bumpy","aberrant","squealing","story","cut","classy","colorful","slip","crooked","dazzling","make","helpful","envious","afterthought","indulge","wacky","compete","mixed","monkey","rainstorm","hysterical","effect","rude","slip","aloof","Earthquake", "curious"]
word = words[random.randint(0, len(words) - 1)]
guess = list(len(word) * '*')

you have mixed quotes at flowers and touch
and because this is not the full code, we cannot run it for ourselves
always post the full code and the full traceback you get

Thank you buran! I'll be sure to post the full program next time.
