I think it means you speak like Yoda. Or omitting the beginning of a sentence and putting it at the end. My daughter used to call me Yoda all the time when we were both much younger. I didn’t get what she meant.

“Even more unusual is the way Yoda famously speaks, ordering his sentences object-subject-verb, or OSV: The lightsaber Yoda grasped. Or, to use an example from an actual Yoda utterance: “Much to learn, you still have.””

I'd like a second opinion.
You're also lazy.

Score 165/200. Don’t recall the other score. Still sometimes turn words around when I speak but catch myself when texting. Go back and put sentence in the order most are used to reading and hearing. So writing is easier for me than speaking in public. Speaking I usually sound ridiculous. Texting-just pretentious at times. Too formal-can’t help it. But always try to be less so for expediency sake.
When entire family moved to CA in the early 60’s classmates would ask me why I talked “so funny.” Assumed they were addressing my Midwest accent and oversized vocabulary. Know better now.
