For example, when you type in the following into CSS:
nav a { color: orange; }
...what does the a actually do again? Would anyone have a link to explain this? :)

Use inspector tool for better understanding about HTML elements as well. It helps, at least for me.

2,435 PointsHI,
a stands for Anchor
This is the link, so if you have soemthing like a href you can link that button with a click to another page.
Did i explained it well?

In case people have the same question, the "a" in CSS is for anchor.
Writing nav a { background-color: orange; } will make all the background color of the links in your nav section turn orange.
