Surprised there were so many comments here as I have literally no idea what the Wikipedia article is talking about even after reading it.
I went to ChatGPT to create some examples of zaum for worldwide brands, it helped a little. I still don't get it - I have a feeling ChatGPT doesn't get it either - it seems to be using florid words to evoke a feeling, absent of meaning (or with literal meaning taking a back seat to the ambiance). In other words, the literary/poetic version of a soundscape. Is that it?
Toyota: Steel dreams meld under mechanical constellations, gears and pistons dance in orchestrated harmony, roads unspool like cosmic ribbons before tire constellations, the hum of engines resonates in the cosmic silence, where the journey's tapestry unfurls with each turn of the terrestrial spindle.
McDonalds: Golden arches stand as sentinels of the fast-food cosmos, sizzling constellations of patties and fries twirl in a symphony of flavors, neon galaxies beckon from drive-thru dimensions, a celestial menu unfurls, where taste and nostalgia collide in cosmic bites of familiarity and delight.
Edit: tried McDonalds again with made up words-
Goldever Crispiflame, a sizzle-gleam delight,
Twirls in FlavoFog, a crispy zephyr's flight.
McFizzleGems dance, zaum's embrace, anew,
Bubbly bounceluxe, in zaum sauce hue.
Flavorbloom sazzy, twixt bunlace dream,
Zaumshakes laughter, a dessert supreme.
Munchkinzest zorbits, in flavorfizz mirth,
Zaumagic savorzest, ignites joy's rebirth.

- maximinus_thrax 3y agoI as well have no idea what this is, but reading more about it, I imagine it makes more sense for people in the Russian speaking community. Edit: > Toyota: Steel dreams meld under mechanical constellations, gears and pistons dance in orchestrated harmony, roads unspool like cosmic ribbons before tire constellations, the hum of engines resonates in the cosmic silence, where the journey's tapestry unfurls with each turn of the terrestrial spindle. That's exactly how I feel when I drive my '99 Corolla, lol
- wruza 3y agoI had to switch to russian version to make sense of it, so it’s probably the article (or translation) quality itself.
