<<The most amusing thing about Stars Wars for me is Yoda. When Yoda  has 
lots of time on his little puppet hands, he speaks in Pennsylvania Dutch  
syntax, e.g., "Around the survivors, a perimeter make!" However, when  
he's really pressed for time in a fight, he reverts to standard American  
business syntax, e.g., "Concentrate your fire on the large  ship!">>
 
Care to analyze the dialect & syntax of JaJa Binx?  (I thought he  was just 
too funny.  My kids walked around for weeks spewing some of the  more 
(now-forgotten)  soundbites.)
