Need help with riddles prog

[ImortalSorrow]

Hey, I hope you can help me with a prog i'm making. Everything is working well except a part where i want to repeat the riddle if the answer isnt correct. here's the bit of the bode where i need help

 
System.out.println("Riddle:blablabla");
    riddleanswer = scanner.nextLine();
 
    if (riddleanswer.equals("2") || riddleanswer.equals("two")) {        
            System.out.println("Great!");
    } else {
        System.out.println("Upss..");
 

well this way it would just finish the code once you get the wrong answer, but i need 2 repeat the riddle 2 be able 2 try again.

Thanks

ohh i get it, but can you help me with the code? im noob in programming so i dont exactly know what to put in the brackets you made. in this case what should i exactly do? should i erase the "if" and the "else" and do other code?

A hint: your lines 1 and 2 should go between those curly brackets. The condition
in your if statement should go between the parentheses.

kind regards,
