Jabberwocky

I found the Jabberwocky poem very interesting, in that we were about to take the English words that we understood in order to put the words we didn't understand into context and figure out what they could mean. I feel that the poem was a good way to illustrate how nonsense and sense work hand in hand.

The game we played in tutorial also helped illustrate this point. Although many of the sentences did not make a story that necessarily fit together, we were able to make sense of the story no matter how wacky or bizarre it sounded.

Discussing the poem in class and participating in these games allowed me to better understand the Jabberwocky concept. I found this topic to be one of the more fun concepts to talk about, as the poem was almost like a puzzle waiting to be solved.
