"Jabberwocky" is a famous nonsense poem written by Lewis Carroll, included in his 1871 book "Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There," the sequel to "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland." Structure: The poem consists of seven stanzas, each with four lines. It is written in a meter similar to that of English ballads. Language: The poem is notable for its use of portmanteau words, invented by Carroll, which blend together parts of different words to create new ones with unique meanings. Words like "slithy" (a combination of "slimy" and "lithe") and "mimsy" (a blend of "miserable" and "flimsy") contribute to the whimsical and fantastical nature of the poem.
