I have this Code Challenge but I can't identify the error:

In the TodoList class, fill in the contains? method so that it returns a boolean value if the todo items array contains an item with the name argument.

todo_list.rb 
class TodoList
  attr_reader :name, :todo_items

  def initialize(name)
    @name = name
    @todo_items = []
  end

  def add_item(name)
    todo_items.push(TodoItem.new(name))
  end

  def contains?(name)
    index = 0
    contain = false
    todo_items.each do |item|
      contain = true if item.name == name
      brake if contain
      index += 1
    end

    if contain
      return true      
    else
      return false
    end
  end

  def find_index(name)
    index = 0
    found = false
        todo_items.each do |item|
      found = true if item.name == name
      break if found
      index += 1
    end
    if found
      return index
    else
      return nil
    end
  end
end

It's break, not brake.
