如何将正则表达式导出为CSV，并确保每个分组都进入正确的列？

Question

I've created the regular expression to group the data I need to collect. However, I'm really lost as to how I go about exporting this.

Here's what I've done https://regex101.com/r/C7KvkH/5

What I need to do next is to have 4 columns in a spreadsheet, such as LibreOffice Spreadsheet or Google Sheets. So I need the data to correspond to the following columns:

'frequency' group 1 -first column, 'word' group 2 -second column, 'gender' group 3 -third column, 'sentence' group 4 -fourth column

Do I save this data to a text file and then change it to a CSV file?

Do I need to create tabs?

How do I go about doing that?

Answer 1

I have expanded on the pattern that I provided for your second question / sample of text (French).

This pattern works with both of your sample texts (French and Spanish). It provides five capture groups as per your second question.

/^(\d+) +(\w+(?:, ?\w+)*) +([acdefijlmnoprtuv()]+(?:, ?[acdefijlmnoprtuv()]+)*) +([\S\s]+?)\n\x{2022} +([\S\s]+?)\n\d+ \| [-+\dno ]+\s*/um

See my remarks at the other answer .

Adjustments to my other pattern:

• Expanded the second capture group to allow comma separated values. eg el, la
• Added u to the character classes of capture group 3. (for #56 & #72)
• Expanded last character class to [-+\\dno ] for occurrences like text block #8.

After using this pattern with preg_replace() to perform the desired tabbing, you can use php's menu of csv functions to produce the file that you need.
