should I look at a manual.

I got a couple basic regular expressions I need for a small script and
I don't wanna wait till I learn a bunch of regular expressions. I've
begun reading

http://www.regular-expressions.info/

which seems like a pretty good guide. But haven't learned enough yet
apparently and like to get this script done.

I need three regular expression searches:

(n)
(v)
(adv)

Now I understand special characters need to be preceded with a / but

/(n/) isn't working

why?

please if ya can.
