Pseudo-classes- :nth-child

Hi there, I am asked to set the font weight to bold. My code is: li:nth-child(-4n4) {color: white; background-color: #FF6347; font-weight: bold;} But I keep getting the error message that the font weight should be bold. What do you think is the problem?

-4n4 is not a valid equation for nth-child parameter, for every 4th element you probably want 4n-4 (or simpler, 4n). Look here for more info about this selector.
