The Tim じぁん!!!
It's a beautiful sunny day today. I spent the afternoon reading with my dad, and something caught my attention – the use of inverted word order in some sentences. For example, "On the hilltop stood a lonely tree." I've noticed this structure before, but I never really gave it much thought until now. It made me wonder if I could try speaking like Yoda! Like, "To the gym goes Lena." Yet, it's still a bit tricky to know when it's okay to use this kind of sentence structure. I mean, if I actually speak like Yoda all the time, wouldn’t that be entertaining ? Or people would more likely assume I am a weirdo.

Good point! If you take the word order in Chinese and translate it directly it can sound very Yoda-like.
