What are the nouns in the poem Jabberwocky?
Too many of the words in the poem "Jabberwocky" are nonsense words made up by the author of the poem, Lewis Carroll (including the noun Jabberwocky). Since they are not real words, the nouns can only be deciphered by their function in the sentence. For example, in the lines, "Twas brillig, and the slithy toves, did gyre and gimble in the wabe", we can interpret "brilling" as a noun or an adjective (a subject complement), or even a verb. We can interpret "slithy" as an adjective describing the noun "toves"; "did gyre and gimble" as a compound verb; and "the wabe" as a noun object of the preposition "in". So many of the words in the poem are not real words, no one can say for sure exactly which words are nouns.
