Help with regex

Question

I'm trying to create a regex that would turn this string:

"pain around the eyes, nose, cheeks, or forehead"

To this:

"pain around the eyes, pain around the nose, pain around the cheeks, pain around the forehead"

I've been trying for an hour now but no luck :(
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

var re = /, (or)?/g;
var str = "pain around the eyes, nose, cheeks, or forehead";

var newstr = str.replace(re, ", pain around the ");
console.log(newstr);

What have you done so far?

Answer 3

Hi Diego, I've successfully captured the first 3 words, but can't capture anything after that.
/^((?:\S+\s+){2}\S+).* ([a-z]+)/

Answer 4

What programming language are you using?

Answer 5

AWESOME!
This works great! Thanks Diego.

Answer 6

I mainly use JavaScript, but doesn't regex have the same syntax in all languages?
