Inside the array literal, add three object literals. In other words, the objects array should have three values.

I can't answer my question. I need help please. Thank you.

script.js 
var objects = [
  {month: 'June', answer: LGBT},
  {month: 'September', answer: Birth},
  {month: 'February', answer: Pisces}

];
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">

</head>
<body>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

Hi Adewuyi,

The reason why you're getting an error is because the 2nd property in each of your objects isn't encapsulated by a set of quotes. Each of those values should be strings surrounded by single or double quotes :)

//I added single quotes to each value
//but you can use either single or double quotes for each value
var objects = [
  {month: 'June', answer: 'LGBT'},
  {month: 'September', answer: 'Birth'},
  {month: 'February', answer: 'Pisces'}
];

Strings have to go inside quotes. SO, you are looking for: 

var objects = [
  {month: 'June', answer: 'LGBT'},
  {month: 'September', answer: 'Birth'},
  {month: 'February', answer: 'Pisces'}
];
