Add a hover state to navigation links that changes color

I can't get passed this question on "Use Classes in CSS" This is what I wrote:

nav a: hover { color: #32673f }

I know I must be missing something but I can't think what it is

css/main.css 
a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

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

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

h1, h2 {
  color: #fff 
}

p {
 color: #000
}

nav a {
 color: #fff 
}

nav a: hover {
  color: #32673f 
}

Hey there!

I see you have made one little mistake. The space between your 'a: hover' discards its functionality as it should not be there. Delete the space and write it like this:

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