I have strings formatted as the following.
could/MD be/VB said/VBN to/TO be/VB ``/`` duly/RB adopted/VBN ''/''
even/RB though/IN
[ it/PRP ]
I want to match the thing after / like MD, VB, VBN, TO, VB, ", RB etc.
This is what I have
while(<$FH>)
{
if($_ =~ /\/(.+?)\s/g)
{
print "$1\n";
}
}
If I run it using the above string I get.
MD
RB
PRP
It is only matching the first instance of my regex even though I am using /g
How can I match every single one, including the punctuation?

You can iterate through each line as follows:
while (<$FH>) {
print "$_\n" for /\/(\S+)/g;
}
