Whats the shorthand for border radius? And is it applied here?

/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.main-nav li:first-child { border: none; border-radius: 5px 0 0 5px; }

.main-nav li:last-child { border-radius: 5px 5px 0 0; }

is this the right code? Im not getting success.

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.main-nav li:first-child {
 border: none;
  border-radius: 5px 0 0 5px;
}

in this challenge you are asked to precise the corners of each property :

.main-nav li:first-child{
 border: none;
   border-top-left-radius: 5px;
border-bottom-left-radius: 5px;
}


.main-nav li:last-child{
 border-top-right-radius: 5px;
border-bottom-right-radius: 5px;
}
