I couldn’t go much further with this without the Mods annoying, but many of you are just as funny as I and a couple more funny are. More funnier are?
“Carnivorousplant, banned you will be calling Noclueboy “dukeybutt” again.”
“Pit this not is. The. Confused I am.”
“Stupid questions there are not, stupid Dopers only.”
“Drugs discussed may not on the Straight Dope, offered as bribes only they may be.”
Mastered Yoda speak, you have not. Think reading Yoda’s Blog will help, I do. Post later and see how much you have improved, you could.
For my ally is the Dope, and a powerful ally, it is. An online community, it makes us. But be ware: ignorance, stupidity, idiocy… the dark side are they.
Polite you must be.
Light sabre accident you might have.
For MPSIMS better suited is this. However, move it I will not. The farce is strong in this one.

And once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your ‘Favorites’ folded.
Once down the Dark Path you start, your “Favorites” folder it will dominate for a long time really, really.
There is a poetics here that Alfred, Lord Tennyson of the “only reapers, reaping early” could not master.
Digress I, however. Insults to Moderators, Sith and the new Administrators ever what they are in OP seek I.
Like this, it works . A normal sentence, you write. Up to and including the verb to the back, then you move. Now a Yoda-speak master, you are.
OK, Rich mann please Yoda this:
Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of it as a final resting place for those who died here that the nation might live. This we may, in all propriety do. But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead who struggled here have hallowed it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.
Only lesson one, that was. This, lesson two is. Occasionally, clauses at the beginning of the sentence, you must leave.
About negatives, lesson three is. The subject and verb, you must switch. “Not ready for more, are you,” as in.

Just reverse Yiddish-speak, Yoda’s dialog is. Master it you can, if little old Jewish man you imagine Yoda as.
And ban users, Yoda would not. The Force he would use instead, acceptable behavior to suggest.
Too bad this is text-only, I’m told my Yoda is very good.
Anger, fear, aggression… the Pit side are they. One you post in the dark forum, forever will it dominate your destiny.
I’ll take a stab at this…
Seven years and forescore ago, brought forth on this continent a new nation our fathers did. Liberty and dedicated to the proposition that created equal all men are, concieved in it was.
In a great civil war engaged are we. Whether that nation or any nation conceived so and dedicated so can endure long, testing we are. A great battlefield of war, met we are on. Died here those who have for that live the nation might, a portion of it to dedicate a resting place final come have we. Propriety in all, this may we do. But a sense larger which in, dedicate we cannot, consecrate we cannot, this ground hallow we cannot. Above far our power poor to add or detract, living and dead the men brave that stuggled here hollowed it they did. Note little nor remember long what say we here the world will, but what here they did, never forget will we.
I had to take a few liberties with this, but here’s my version. I didn’t read Baggins111 ’s take.
Mmmmm. Seven and fourscore years ago, our forefathers on this continent a new nation brought forth. In liberty was it conceived, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal it was, yes.
Begun, this Civil War has. Test whether the nation can endure, it will. On a great battlefield of that war are we met, although war does not make one great. Come we have to a portion of it, to dedicate it as a final resting place for those who died here. So the nation might live did they give their lives. In all propriety, do this we may. But in a larger sense, dedicate we can not, consecrate we can not, hallow this ground can we not. Hallowed it, the brave men did. Struggled here did they. Hallowed it did they, far above our poor power to add or detract. Note what we say here, the world will do little. Forget what they did, it can not.
Not answer a question with a question, should I?

Conceived in liberty it was, and to the proposition that “created equal all men are” dedicated it was.
