Please Help, What am I doing wrong?

seems like i have it but it says I dont have it in the .icon rule, is it just being stubborn?

style.css 
/* nav-item transitions ---------- */

.nav-item {
    flex-grow: 1;
  transition: flex-grow .5s;
  transition-timing-function: ease-out;
}

.nav-item:hover {
    flex-grow: 2;
  transition-delay: .4s
}

/* nav icon transitions ---------- */

.icon {
  right: -25px;
  transition: right .4s;
  transition-delay: .3s;
  transition-timing-function: ease-in-out;

}

.nav-item:hover .icon {
    right: 12%;

}

Hi, Everything seems to be fine, even I've copied your code and test it, the only change that I did was remove the reference to page.css and add a semicolon (';') at the end of transition-delay: .4s of nav-item:hover.

I hope you find this useful.

It looks like a new property "transition-delay: .4s" was added to the ".nav-item:hover" rule, but that was not asked for in the instructions.

Be careful to only do what the instructions ask, anything extra can cause the validation to fail (as it does here).
