Bummer: You need to use the text "Shirt Size:" within the new label element.

I don't understand why I keep getting this message even though the text is exactly as stated in the requirement.

      <label for="color">Shirt Color:</label>
      <select id="color" name="shirt_color">
        <label>Shirt Size:</label>
          <input type="radio" id="small" value="small" name="shirt_size">

The issue lies in the fact that you've nested your label and radio buttons inside a select element, which is a syntactical error. Try moving the label and radio button group outside of the select and see what happens ;)

<select id="color" name="shirt_color">
        <label>Shirt Size:</label>
          <input type="radio" id="small" value="small" name="shirt_size">
          <input type="radio" id="medium" value="medium" name="shirt_size">
          <input type="radio" id="large" value="large" name="shirt_size">
