Cant use default option more than one time(s)

i am trying to use the "timeout" command in a batch script, and it says "ERROR: Invalid syntax. Default option is not allowed more than one time(s)" and it closes the script after. Can anyone help me fix this? The code is as follows

@echo off
title {REDACTEDPRIVATESTACKOVERFLOW}

echo {REDACTEDPRIVATESTACKOVERFLOW}

timeout /t 3 /timeout 

echo {REDACTEDPRIVATESTACKOVERFLOW}

echo "hi"
