Code Challenge for Media Query, and I can't figure out what I'm getting an error for.

It keeps saying if I have the specific font size for the .title

style.css 
@media (max-width: 1020px) {
  .main-header {
    background-color: tomato;
    color: white;
  }
}

  @media (max-width: 768px) {
  .title {
    font-size 1.4rem;
    width: 100%;
  }

    h1 {
      font-size: 5rem;
    }
  }
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lake Tahoe</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=768, initial-scale=1">
  </head>
  <body> 
    <header id="top" class="main-header">
      <span class="title">Journey Through the Sierra Nevada Mountains</span>
      <h1 class="main-heading">Lake Tahoe, California</h1>
    </header>

        <div class="primary-content">
            <p class="intro">
                Lake Tahoe is one of the most breathtaking attractions located in California. It's home to a number of ski resorts, summer outdoor recreation, and tourist attractions. Snow and skiing are a significant part of the area's reputation.
            </p>

        </div><!-- End .primary-content -->
  </body>

You are missing the colon between font-size and 1.4rem.

Not sure, but im guessing it wants a specific value for font-size which is px not rem

This is the question: Next, create a new media query that targets all devices when the viewport width is 768px or narrower. Inside the media query, target the .title element and set the font-size to 1.4rem. Finally, target the h1 element and set its font-size to 5rem.

@media (max-width: 1020px) { .main-header { background-color: tomato; color: white; } }

@media (max-width: 768px) { .title { font-size: 1.4rem; } .h1 { font-size: 5rem; } }
