Yoda, Gollum Take MTV Awards

Posted by michael on from the my-precious dept.

  1. Yoda speak is Latin, dammit by mr_tenor · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I cannot _stand_ people who think Yoda speaks in a fashion that just randomly rearranges words. The times I've watched Star Wars (tm) movies, it's always seemed to me that he speaks in a classical Latin word order

    eg.

    "Strong you are" (Yoda) or whatever, as compared to
    "mangus es" (Romans)
