"error CS1501: No overload for method `Add' takes `2' arguments"

I have been trying to build the following Text Adventure and have reached an error that I cannot figure out how to resolve. The error is as follows : 'Assets/My_Scripts/MH_Script.cs(19,23): error CS1501: No overload for method Add' takes 2' arguments' alt text

and here is MH_ScriptManager:

alt text

Can somebody please explain to me what I am doing wrong, and how I can go about resolving this error in the future. I have only been coding for a month, it's fun but very meticulous.

please post the actual code, NOT screenshots. if somebody trying to help you needs to test the code, they're unlikely to type it in ;)

however, the error looks valid - there is no .Add in List which accepts 2 arguments - are you trying to create a Dictionary?

Sorry about that and no I am not trying to create a dictionary. I am trying to make a list "sList" hold two different string values, one that holds the gamestate and the other that holds the states corresponding text. However I cannot seem to overload the method Add, I've done a bunch of research but I am either not looking in the right place or I am just not understanding what I have to do.
