I've tested this regex throughly, but quiterss just can't apply it.
I want to match all the English words outside the brackets. Anyone know why it's not working?

Hi,
so far I'm not sure if I get your issue.
As I understand you have an english text with chinese phrases included and you want to match the english text parts only. Right?
Can you provide a concret example? Maybe some text and a part you try to match.
Kind regards,
Sheldon
In the previous post has the link contains the test line. I want to match all the English text which is not inside the brackets.
Sorry, but following the link doesn't lead to any test line. Just provide it hear please.
Or do you maybe mean this text?

The link work fine for me, but I'll post here anyway.
［おはようございます] [uk] Good morning おはようございます
I want to match the "Good morning" part only.
Btw, I would like to ask, does quiterss support look-behind (regex)?
Here we are!:-) Please try this without the quotes.
"\b\w+\b " or " \b\w+\b"
Seem like it's still not working, it's still match the English text inside the brackets.

You might not have used the [SPACE] at the beginning or at the end. It's really meant like this [SPACE]\b\w+\b
As it shows in the link provided, I've not insert any space like you said. You can use these websites to check the regex and the test line as I had provided: ［おはようございます] [uk] Good morning おはようございます. It should match only the "Good morning" part.

This works somehow. Thanks a lot
I tested it there and it works fine. Just add a space before the first \b or after the second \b..
It works because there is always a space between words.
