How do I create a Key and Values Dictionary array in C# (84143)

I have created dictionaries before but in vb.net
where i would do this

 Private degreeDictionary As Dictionary(Of String, String())

    Public Sub kanjsort()

        degreeDictionary= New Dictionary(Of String, String())
       
        degreeDictionary.Add("ups", {"updegree", "popup"})

End sub

in C# a generally similar method is used

Dictionary<string, string> degreeDictionary= new Dictionary<string,string>();

Void Start ()
{
degreeDictionary.add("upps","updata","goingup");


}

I have been looking around but I havent seen any references to keys and values array type dictionary .

how can I create an array dictionaty that can hold keys and values in this manner
degreeDictionary.Add(“ups”, {“updegree”, “popup”})… or something like this

You would probably have to do something like this:

Dictionary<string, List<string>> degreeDictionary = new Dictionary<string List<string>>();

void Start()
{
  string key = "ups";
  List<string> value = new List<string>();
  value.Add("updegree");
  value.Add("popup");

  degreeDictionary.Add(key, value);
}

Or:

Dictionary<string, string[]> degreeDictionary = new Dictionary<string string[]>();

void Start()
{
  degreeDictionary.Add("ups", new string[2] { "updegree", "popup" });
}
