how to install yarn without installing nodejs dependency
I have nvm installed which handles installation of all my node versions, in ~/.nvm and I was advised, at one point, how to install yarn with pacman without having pacman install nodejs for me, since I've delegated that to nvm. For now, I'm using 'sudo pacman -Sdd yarn', but I recall being given another flag and arguments for pacman to accomplish what I'm trying to do. thank you.

Re: how to install yarn without installing nodejs dependency
Don't. Use the official yarnpkg instructions for installing outside of the package manager: https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install#alternatives-stable
Use this to install yarn to your own home folder, where it will live in peace with nvm, rather dying in discord and war with pacman (which will report consistency errors, or install nodejs for you the next time yarn updates, or result in software which is broken depending on whether/how your nvm environment is currently set up).
