Add Contacts to my new Group

I've read some older threads on this. i wonder how I can select a contact form my contacts list and use it to create a new Group member. When I search for a contact from the Group page, it does not find it. Gotta be something simple?

    I Outlook for Mac 16.110.3 and it will not revert to Legacy, I cannot enter new contacts nor can I access any that were previously made.  What can I do to get "new contacts" to function?

    Hi Leon, Outlook can be confusing here because personal contact lists, Microsoft 365 Groups, and directory groups are different things. If the Group page search doesn’t find personal contacts, try creating a Contact List from People/Contacts instead, or type the email address manually when adding members. If this is a Microsoft 365 Group, it may only search directory users rather than your personal contact entries.
