Intro - Read This First

This translator converts normal English into Yoda's way of speaking. Yoda speaks in short sentences! If you try to translate long, convoluted sentences you'll probably get a weird translation. Yoda's sentences have a different (and often inconsistent) Subject-Object-Verb order than normal English.

Tips:

Yoda Voice Changer

• Please don't just try 'Hello.' Nothing will change. Yoda won't answer back, he'll just repeat. It's not the same thing as a conversation.
• In the Star Wars movies, Yoda speaks short sentences for a reason. If the result is total garbage, that could be why!
• Make sure you use proper english grammar and punctuation, our little green friend can't read your mind. 'Don't', instead of 'Dont', and so on.
• The exception is this: You should use extra punctuation if a sentence contains more than one clause, often split with 'and', 'or', etc. For example: 'Put your hands up and step away from the turnip.' should be 'Put your hands up, and step away from the turnip.' or 'Put your hands up. Step away from the turnip.'
• If using commas and full stops in currencies or initialisms, do not use spaces.
• The use of parenthesis is not yet recommended, though I will work on them.
• If there are issues and a sentence is not yoda-fied as you think it should, it could also be because I haven't yet included all the words I need to in the search formulas. If I spot a dodgy result, I'll get around to working on it. :)
