What part of speech is the frumious?

"Frumious" is an adjective.

It's a made-up word by Lewis Carroll in his poem "Jabberwocky" in "Through the Looking-Glass". Although it has no real definition, it's used to describe a creature in the poem, so it functions as an adjective modifying the noun "creature".
