you should try to follow the instructions. Here they are for ref

use a type selector for the anchor element (a ) and use the value black for the color property.

Let me know if you have a question about the instructions.

3

I’m just confused in general what to do. I don’t know where to start.

4

I’m not sure how to answer you because your question is not very specific.

For example: The instructions say that you should add an anchor selector.
Do you know how to do that?

5

it says to add another anchor element but the only type of anchor element I have seen is in the index.html when sourcing an image or a website.

As I said that I realised the question seems to add extra words which can be confusing. All you I needed to was just treat it like another other class.

6

this is an example of an h1 selector

the anchor selector is almost identical but uses a instead of h1
