A reversal of the normal word order in a sentence, used in poetry and rhetoric for dramatic effect.
From Greek ana- (back) and strophe (turning), literally 'a turning back.' The term describes the inversion of typical grammatical sequence.
Yoda speaks in anastrophe constantly ('Wise you are' instead of 'You are wise'), making him sound alien and wise—Shakespeare used this trick too to make his characters sound grander.
