do you have a clue why is this not working? The interpreter complains
about a syntax error in line 7 near $myhash.

You have written '$myhash($ky)' when you meant to write '$myhash{$ky}'. You have also written '%myhash = { ... }' when you meant to write '%myhash = ( ... )'.

You've flipped your parentheses '(' and ')' with your braces '{' and '}'.

%myhash = { "alma" => "apple", "korte" => "pear" };

       print $ky, ":" , $myhash($ky), "\n";
