How to nest OL in UL list?

I've reached a point of acute frustration on this task and would appreciate some help. I didn't see this specifically covered in the video, and Google search results aren't helping either. Having tried combination after combination, I have no idea how to do this.

<ol> <li>Stop</li> <li>Drop</li> <li>Roll</li> </ol>

No worries, what I gave you is not the proper solution for the actual exersise, but the way you have to do it through the code challenge.

I 've just done it, I 've checked, It has passed the code challenge. It's not difficult as you can see.

      <ol>
          <li>Stop</li>
          <li>Drop</li>
         <li>Roll</li>
    </ol>

    <ul>
       <li>Shapes
         <ol>
           <li>Squares</li>
           <li>Circle</li>          
        </ol>
       </li>
      <li>Colors</li>
    </ul>

            ```
