Let’s get the first thing out the way, eh?
Very amusing this graph I find!
Yoda speaks like that because he’s obviously found a better way of speaking. I mean, look, the important things come first, no?
Deceptively intelligent, this way of speaking is.
Technically, Yoda speaks perfectly fine – it’s just OSV syntax. Perfectly acceptable english.
Well, it’s not strictly OSV, nor is it really consistent. But what matters is that we can understand him. And those of us who can’t understand his word order probably would be too dense to understand what he’s really saying anyway.
YAY, you know that Yoda actually speaks correctly
Actually, Yoda speaks English very well. Those are proper ways to form sentences.
Too bad Yoda likes it up the poop shoot.
It’s because Yoda is the original lolcat.
You can has force, hmmmm, yes. And cheezburger.
the red part should say “Sentence structure, proper knowledge of”
No, he’s just German.
In German, at the end of the sentence the verb goes.
Don’t mess with Yoda b!tch
It should be
“Mess with Yoda, you do not.”
Bitch
Kick your ass, he will.
Yoda Latin speaks.
(Or Yoda Forth programs.)
: bumpersticker forth love if honk then ;
Funny that one was!
Uhhh…actually, it’s “Knowledge of proper sentence structure!
Actually Yoda speaks in chiasmus. It is proper sentence structure, it’s just not the most common way to form a sentence. Eat that, grammar nazis.
I thought he spoke in anastrophe…

talk backwards, he does not. listen backwards, you do
Any STAR WARS fan would know that Yoda translated his language into ours so he could learn it and that’s how it was translated so that’s how he learned it.
ex. “When 900 years old you reach, look as good you will not.”(Episode 6: Return Of The Jedi) Whereas we would say “You will not look as good when you reach 900 years old.”
