declaration is incompatible with "std::string getDay(<error-type> d)" error help

jb2918 (8)
when i introduce getDay at top it says : declaration is incompatible with "std::string getDay(<error-type> d)" declared at line 22
How can i get this error to go away? i have even tried #include <string> with the same result

  #include <iostream>

using namespace std;


enum dayOfWeek {M = 1, TU, W, TH, F, SA, SN};

string getDay(dayOfweek);
int main()
{
	dayOfWeek d = M;
		
	cout << d << endl;
	
	
	
	cout << getDay(M) << endl;
	system("pause");
	return 0;
}

string getDay(dayOfweek d)
{
	switch(d)
	{
		case M:
			return "Monday";
		case TU:
			return "Tuesday";
		case W:
			return "Wednesday";
		case TH:
			return "Thursday";
		case F:
			return "Friday";
		case SA:
			return "Saturday";
		case SN:

Uppercase and lowercase are NOT the same.

Look VERY carefully at
dayOfWeek (lines 6, 11)
dayOfweek (lines 8, 22)
