Yoda had a strange way of speaking, but he was easily understood.

"Just about everyone that isn't from here just kind of appeared here." he tried to explain. "They say someone named Q is behind it and that they're trying to send people back."

Minoru always assumed he'd come here via a portal from Ryuuchi Cave, since the last thing he remembered before finding himself on this spaceship was jumping into one. But it was entirely possible Q grabbed him on the way. He traveled between dimensions on a regular basis, staying for whatever length of time he wanted to, and then wandered on. So that part, anyway, was par for the course.

"I'm not too worried about it. The people are friendly, even if there's a lot I don't understand."
