You have to use Portfolio, About and Contact. The first letter of every word has to be uppercase Sometimes the errors are quiet confusing :/

Just tried it with lowercase letters and it does not work

Tobias is correct. Your syntax is correct, you just need title casing on your words.

Inside the navigation element, create three list items with the words, “Portfolio”, “About”, and “Contact”. Don’t add links yet.

In the question the words have capital letters. Across all TeamTreehouse challenges case sensitivity matters unless specified in the question.
