nonsensical language (according to Lewis Carroll)
Famous nonsense poem written by Lewis Carroll which first appeared in Alice Through the Looking Glass (1872).
"Jabberwocky" is a poem of nonsense verse written by Lewis Carroll, and found as a part of his novel Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There (1871). It is generally considered to be one of the greatest nonsense poems written in the English language. This poem is used in many schools to teach students about the use of portmanteaus.
Jabberwocky (1977) is a comic medieval film by Monty Python's resident animator, Terry Gilliam. It stars Michael Palin as a young cooper who is forced through a series of clumsy, often slapstick misfortunes to hunt down a terrible dragon after the death of his father. The name is taken from the nonsense poem Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll.
Jabberwocky is the Creative Writing Magazine at the University of Nottingham. As of 2006 it has only been running for a short time but is already building an excellent reputation. It is written and created by students, for students.
