Since Yaddle speaks normally, why does Yoda talk so different?

In Tales of the Jedi, we finally got to hear another member of Yoda's species talk on-screen. And to the surprise of many, Yaddle actually sounds normal!

Yoda steals the show in The High Republic Adventures #2!

The second issue of Daniel José Older's Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures recently released, and it picked up exactly where the previous issue left off. That, in and of itself, is very welcome!
