Question

I have a database that contains verbs and information about these verbs. The information is in parentheses and always follows the verb. Example:

tántyjë' ë chòn (5.53.3.1) bántyjë' ë chòn (5.53.3 1) nngwántyjë' é chòn (5.5.53.3.1) kwántyjë' ë chòn (5.53.3.1)

I am looking for an expression that isolates each verb followed by its information in brackets. Example : tántyjë' ë chòn (5.53.3.1) This is 1 pattern.

Thanks

You can try with the following regex:

(?<verb>[^(]+) (?<info>\([^\)]+\)) ?

Explanation:

• (?<verb>[^(]+) : Group containing the verb
  • [^(]+ : combination of characters other than open parenthesis
• : a space
• (?<info>\([^\)]+\)) : Group containing the information
  • \( : open parenthesis
  • [^\)]+ : combination of characters other than closed parenthesis
  • \) : closed parenthesis
• ? : optional ending space
