It says document.gerElementsByTagNames is not a function

const myList = document.gerElementsByTagNames("li"); for(let = i; i<myList.length; i++){ myList[i].style.color= "red"; }

I have no idea why it says that please help.

Your error still shows ger so you probably need to refresh the page or console. Also, there should be name not names at the end
