Try this:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
import time


chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_argument("--headless")


driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="./chromedriver", options=chrome_options)
driver.get("https://www.mojidict.com/details/198951091?notationMode=1")

time.sleep(5)

total_text_element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("(//div[@class='example-info'])[8]")
total_text = total_text_element.text

undesired_text_element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("(//div[@class='example-info'])[8]/div/ruby/rt")
undesired_text = undesired_text_element.text

desired_text = total_text.replace(undesired_text, "")
desired_text = desired_text.replace("\n\n", "")
print(desired_text)

Please note that I have done this for a specific element and not all the elements. If you want to apply it to all the matching cases of the given x-path, then you have to incorporate some additional changes. First change will be using find_elements_by_xpath instead of find_element_by_xpath.
