I wonder if I am mistaking this?

Hi. I suppose to specify the variable for each argument and tried, but I gave this error message "The mixin should take 2 parameters, '$size' and '$color.". I'm a little confusing about which are arguments, which are variables and which are parameters...

Can anyone please lend me a hand?

`` @mixin square($color, $size) { border: 1px solid $color; height: $size; width: $size; }

.box { @include square(red,50px) } ``

style.scss 
@mixin square($color, $size) {
  border: 1px solid $color;
  height: $size;
  width: $size;
}

.box {
  @include square(red,50px)
}

Odd, it looks like you are doing the tasks out of order! The "box" rule isn't mentioned until task 3.

But anyway, task 1 should have given you the message: "Bummer: The mixin should take 2 parameters, '$size' and '$color'." That's a hint that the parameters are not specified in the correct order. — "$size" should come first.
