Lua is case sensitive, so you need the 's' to be also capitalized.

hun.WalkSpeed = 0.1

You also misspelled WalkSpeed with WalkSpeen and originalWalkSpeed with orininalWalkSpeed. It should be hum.WalkSpeed = originalWalkSpeed D4_rrk 89 — 3y

In the future, if you get errors make sure to re-read your code to make sure any capitals are capitalized and any misspellings are changed. D4_rrk 89 — 3y

Would you mind providing me with the line of code where the error appears. You can do this by clicking on the error message and it will direct you to the line of code where the error occurred. D4_rrk 89 — 3y

You misspelled hum with hun. So it should be hum.WalkSpeed = 0.1 D4_rrk 89 — 3y

Problem:

You are trying to set a value of a misspelled variable, and failed to capitalize the 'S' in hum.WalkSpeed.

Solution:

Fix the misspelled words and capitalization.

Code:

local attackCooldown = 1 
local attackWindup = 0.5 
local attackRange = 3 
local attackDamage = 20

local char = script.Parent.Parent 
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid") -- the variable you defined
local originalWalkSpeed = hum.WalkSpeed

local canAttack = true

script.Parent.AttackRemote.Event:Connect(function(plrRoot)
    if not canAttack then return end
        canAttack = false

        hum.WalkSpeed = 0.1 -- this was "hun.Walkspeed"

        local anim = Instance.new("Animation")
        anim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://7209529782"
        local playAnim = hum:LoadAnimation(anim)
        playAnim:Play()

        wait(attackWindup)
        local newDistance = (char.HumanoidRootPart.Position -  plrRoot.Position).magnitude
        if newDistance <= attackRange + 5 then 

            if plrRoot.parent.Player.isBlocking.Value == true then
                attackDamage *= 0.5
            end
            plrRoot.Parent.Humanoid:takeDamage(attackDamage)

        wait(attackCooldown)
        hum.WalkSpeed = orininalWalkSpeed -- this was "hum.Walkspeed"
        canAttack = true

    end
end)
