why do we have to write first the contact-info class li and then only phone class? if I want to style phone class then can I just write .phone and style? will it work that way?

Could you provide a code example of what you are referring to?
I believe the video is just showing how you are able to select specific elements.

Courses Plus Student 2,010 PointsSorry for late reply. As you can see below there are two classes. Cant I just use phone classe to apply some styles. For instance: phone a { contact-info li.phone a { background-image: url(../img/phone.png); }
Why do I have to write contact-info class? Will it not work if i use phone class itself?
contact-info li.phone a { background-image: url(../img/phone.png); }

Yes you could do that.
The video is just showing how you can pinpoint specific elements.
