We consider a strongly nonlinear monotone elliptic problem in generalized Orlicz-Musielak spaces. We assume neither a Δ2 nor ∇2-condition for an inhomogeneous and anisotropic N-function but assume it to be log-Hölder continuous with respect to x. We show the existence of weak solutions to the zero Dirichlet boundary value problem. Within the proof the L ∞-truncation method is coupled with a special version of the Minty-Browder trick for non-reflexive and non-separable Banach spaces.
