that rigid is the construction is true. but incomprehensible that it is
i see not. like Yoda-speech it is. (wrong universe it is. know this i
do. care i don't. making point i am.)
just as you can understand the above paragraph, i suspect that anyone
reading yoDtargh's phrase above would understand it. they'd probably do
a mental double-take when they realized what wasn't normal about it, but
it says basically the same thing -- just really really oddly. kinda like
Okrand's explanation of <-ghach> on a naked stem.
*shrug* just my two-socks' worth.
