# From a crash course guide to Japanese I once read
'Speak like Yoda'

Yoda actually follows Japanese sentence structure to a limited degree.

# to a degree, yes,
i read that he actually uses a sentence structure (OSV, i think it is...) which isn't used in any human language. Japanese is SOV and English is SVO. i think. but i'm tired so i may be wrong.

# I think you're right
I'm doing an (equivalent of) GCSE Japanese at the moment, I'm getting there, we just did the progressive form which wasn't that hard to me.

# If...
You'd understand if you were over 26 and went to a UK primary school. Hargrave Park was a good one.

# Why do I sense
That whatever it is, it isn't particularly PC?

# No, no, no...
It's not a cockle-picking Tory thing. It's what kids in school used to say before pulling the fronts of their jumpers forwards thus pretending to have breasts. Hence christmas trees.
