Detailed explanation-1: -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.”
Detailed explanation-2: -Here’s a double: “Powerful (object) you (subject) have (verb) become; the dark side (object) I (subject) sense (verb) in you.” All of these sentences contain a subject and a predicate. Therefore, the answer to the question is: yes, Yoda’s speech pattern is grammatically correct; strange to our ears, it just sounds.
Detailed explanation-3: -Context. This line is spoken by Yoda, played by Frank Oz, in the film Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, directed by Irvin Kershner (1980). Luke Skywalker is on Dagobah trying to learn to use the Force and become a Jedi with the help of a little green puppet named Yoda.
