In this code challenge, what does it mean to add another list within 2 items?

This challenge is just meant as a refresher. Create a single new list variable named my_list. Put 3 numbers and 2 strings into it in whatever order you want. For the last member, though, add another list with 2 items in it.

This is what I came up with so far.

lists.py 
my_list = [0, 1, 2, "people", "love"]

This challenge might be a bit misleading. You need 6 items in your list, the last being another list (with two new items in it) For example:

my_list = [0, 1, 2, "people", "love", ["unconditional love", True]]
