Don't worry, your grammar is actually a lot better than some other people on this site. As for getting the player Character (what I assume you mean by the player in the workspace) you would run something like this:

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character

Now that's all well and good, but the variable char will hold nil because the player object in Players loads in before the character loads, now, some people have different (and probably better) methods for getting around this, but I use this:

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
repeat wait() until player.Character
--waits until the character loads in
local char = player.Character

And there you have it.
