The term 'borogroves' appears in which Lewis Carroll poem?

• A. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
• B. Jabberwocky
• C. Through the Looking-Glass
• D. The Hunting of the Snark

Answer: (B)

This question hinges on recognizing a famous nonsense poem by Lewis Carroll and knowing where it appears. The poem that famously uses invented words like borogoves is Jabberwocky. It’s the poem tucked inside the narrative of Through the Looking-Glass, not part of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, and not related to The Hunting of the Snark. The line that shows the word—“All mimsy were the borogoves”—is a hallmark line from Jabberwocky, illustrating Carroll’s playful coinage of words.
