The task is to add an ordered list inside the list item of the previous list.

The previous list you have is:

  <ul>
      <li>Shapes</li>
      <li>Colors</li>
   </ul>

So now you need to add another list, but this time inside of the list item with the word "Shapes". This can be done by adding the ol tags before the closing tag of that list item </li>

Here it is completed:

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

Hey David,

Did you try putting the ordered list inside of the <li>Shapes</li> element?

Like this:

      <li>Shapes
          <ol></ol>
      </li>
