I would like to match words in a line that start with an uppercase letter and continue until the word (s) that begin with the other uppercase letter begin.
Animals Chicken helmet Animal baby kids Crazy 6 yo monkey Baby white-black horse
Match: / contains lowercase letters, numbers, special characters
Animals Chicken helmet Animal baby kids Crazy 6 yo monkey Baby white-black horse
i tried this
(^[A-Za-z]+\s?\w+\W+?\d?)+
You can use
\b[A-Z]\S*(?:\s+[^A-Z\s]\S*)*
See the regex demo.
Details
\b - a word boundary (if the words are separated with whitespaces, replace with (?<!\S))[A-Z]\S* - an uppercase ASCII letter (replace with \p{Lu} if supported for Unicode support) and then any zero or more non-whitespace chars(?:\s+[^A-Z\s]\S*)* - zero or more occurrences of
\s+ - one or more whitespaces[^A-Z\s] - any char but whitespace and an uppercase ASCII letter (use [^\p{Lu}\s] if Uniocde support is necessary and is supported)\S* - any zero or more non-whitespace chars
