Add a hover state for navigation links that changes the text color to the value #32673f.

I wrote: nav a:hover { color: #32673f; }

And it says: Did you style nav links hover state (:hover)?

Please help I do not know what is wrong

This worked for me: 

h1, h2 {
    color: #fff; 
}

p {
    color: #000; 
}

a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

nav a {
    color: #fff; 
}

nav a:hover {
    color: #32673f;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

Did you tag your <a> links with nav?

Depending on if you use a class or id for these tags, you'll also want to add a #(hashtag/pound) or .(period/dot) in front of nav in the css.

nav a:hover {

styles here }

or

.nav a:hover { styles here }
