AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'duration'

I am trying to edit my video using moviepy. And when I want to cut a part of it I get error: AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'duration' Why ?

from moviepy.editor import *
clip0 = VideoFileClip('08.mkv')
clip0 = clip0.set_audio(f'../Rus_sound/08.mkv'[:-3] + 'mp3')
end = 0
start = 0
lista = [0.4,0.6]
movie1 = '08.mkv'
movie2 = '../Bubble_Background_Video3.mp4'
clip0 = VideoFileClip(movie1)
audio = f'../Rus_sound/{movie1}'[:-3] + 'mp3'
clip1 = clip0.set_audio(audio)
    
w = clip1.w
h = clip1.h
fps = clip1.fps
clip2 = VideoFileClip(movie2).resize(height=h, width=w).set_fps(fps)
durata = clip1.duration - end
lista = [start] + [i*durata for i in lista ] + [durata]
    
stocked = []
for i in range(1, len(lista)):
    o = i-1
    clip = clip1.subclip(lista[o], lista[i])
    stocked.append(clip)
    if i != len(lista)-1:
        stocked.append(clip2)
clip = concatenate_videoclips(stocked, method='compose')

This is my Error traceback:

The PROBLEM here, which would have been clear if you read the documentation, is that the set_audio function does not take a string. It takes an AudioFileClip object. moviepy is smart enough not to do the actual work at that point; it just remembers what you wanted for audio. Later, when you try to use that clip, it tries to look up the audio file's duration, and it finds a string where it expected an object.

clip1 = clip0.set_audio(AudioFileClip(audio))
