Regex for a word can be plural

原文 2018-08-13 18:09:19 9 1 javascript/ regex

I want regex that will match "lead" or "leads" and will not match when it's part of another word like cheerleaders or leaders. I also don't want whitespaces matched before or after the word.

The closet I got was /(?:^|\\W)Lead(?:$|\\W){0,5}/g;

But this matches Leaders and whitespaces. This is in javascript if that makes a difference.

\\bleads?\\b is all you need. \\b is a word boundary, which means the word ends at the boundary.

s? is an optional s
