| What it does: |
Alphanumeric part numbers and references like: 1111_A, AA1AAA or 1-1-1-A, 21A1 and 10UC10P-BACW, abcd-1234, 1234-pqtJK, sft-0021 or 21-1_AB and 55A or AK7_GY.

| Regex: |
\b(the|The)\b.*?\b(?=\W?\b(is|are|was|can|shall| must|that|which|about|by|at|if|when|should|among|above|under|$)\b) |
| What it does: |
This finds text that begins with the or The and ends with stop words such as is, are, was, can, shall, must, that, which, about, by, at, if, when, should, among, above or under, or the end of the segment.
This is particularly useful when you need to extract terminology. Suppose you have segments like these:
- The Web based look up is our new feature.
- A project manager should not proofread...
- Our Product Name is...
The Regex shown above would find anything between The and is, or should. With most texts, there is a good chance that anything this Regex finds is a good term that you can add to your Termbase. |

This works much like the Regex shown above, except that it finds text that begins with a or an, rather than the. This can also be very helpful when you need to extract terminology from a project. |
