nav a {
font-weight: 800;
padding: 15px 10px;
}

1,901 Pointsyes. when I did nav a, it worked. but links inside nav should be nav li, right? thank you Jacob and Richard for quick reply.

12,466 PointsWell, I didn't look at the html, but I'm assuming that there are anchor elements inside of the list items. So no, the links would not be targeded by nav li. Applying those styles the list items will do pretty much the same thing as applying them to the anchor elements, but nav a is what the challenge was looking for.
