expected primary-expression before '.' token

Using Arduino Programming Questions

Working with the Arduino for one of the first times in my life and not having a great time with it.
Project is to use a DHT sensor to display to an LCD. I don't know if the rest of it will even work properly since this error is giving me issues. Sorry if this is in any way messed up, I read over the guide but I don't often post on forums.

Code:

#include <DHT.h>
#include <LiquidCrystal.h>

#define DHTPIN 2
#define DHT11_PIN 7
#define DHTTYPE DHT11

DHT dht(DHTPIN, DHTTYPE);

LiquidCrystal lcd(12, 11, 5, 4, 3, 2);


void setup() {
  lcd.begin(16, 2);
}

void loop()
{
  int chk = DHT.read11(DHT11_PIN);
  lcd.setCursor(0, 0);
  lcd.print("Temp: ");
  lcd.print(DHT.temperature);
  lcd.print((char)167);
  lcd.print("C");
  lcd.setCursor(0, 1);
  lcd.print("Humidity: ");
  lcd.print(DHT.humidity);
  lcd.print("%");
  delay(1000);
}

Error:
C:\Users\mrgnl\OneDrive\Documents\Arduino\sketch_oct23a\sketch_oct23a.ino: In function 'void loop()':

Check you example to see if DHT should be written as dht:
int chk = DHT.read11( . . .

You declared an instance named "dht" in this line:

DHT dht(DHTPIN, DHTTYPE);

Your code uses the name "DHT":

  int chk = DHT.read11(DHT11_PIN);

Incorrect case for the variable preceding the period. Remember, C++ is case sensitive.

[Edit]: Already answered - a bit slow on the draw.
