Term explanation--Dadaism

Dada is Dadaism. It is a bourgeois literary and artistic school that emerged in Europe at the beginning of the 20th century. There have always been different opinions about the origin of the word "Dada". Some believe it is a word with no real meaning, while others believe it comes from the frequently used colloquial phrase "da, da", which means "yes, yes" in Romanian, used frequently by Romanian artists Chara and Janco. The most popular theory is that in 1916, a group of artists met in Zurich to come up with a name for their organization. They randomly opened a French-German dictionary and randomly selected a word, which was "dada". In French, the word "dada" means a rocking horse for children to play on.
