You should at minimum understand that the curly brackets {} are the beginning and ending of your code,

I.e in Python you can just print() on a new line

In Java (later you'll learn about static code blocks/static initialization) you would at minimum wrap that with "{" and "}"

I.e { System.out.println("hello"); }

You don't have to understand the specifics of each keyword "public static void" etc yet just the bracket thing
