A theory developed that shows the moans are the inverse of sighs. Where moans go up then down in tone, sighs go down then up in tone. This theory is useful for people learning Chinese, or taking Mandarin/Cantonese as a Second Language.
According to the moan-sigh theory, the essence of pronunciation for mandarin characters with the 3rd tone is comparable to that of a sigh, or the inverse of a sigh - known as a moan.

I know why Yoda sighs… — The helpless, exasperated, ejaculation uttered when someone who is suppose to be watching your back completely misses the mark.
Your mission partner only has one well articulated and necessary job necessary for the successful completion of “THE PLAN” and they absolutely blow it.
The origin of this expression is the scene in the movie: The Empire Strikes Back when the Jedi Master Yoda deeply sighs after Luke Skywalker fails his test inside of the Dark Side tree.
Luke had one job…ONE JOB!!!!!!!
And he blew it; HE BLEW IT!!!!!!!!!!
And Yoda sighed!!!!!

You don’t like Singapore your country is it. Then don’t direct message or else ask me what happened don’t ask the past focus on the present sigh. That’s what Ms Hema said to you.
