How to find English words by their last letter?

Its easy to find words listed together by their first letter — you just need to open a dictionary! But you can use this resource to find all English words by their last letter! This is useful for explaining the different pronunciations that letters can have depending on the other letters in a word. For example, H has different sound in «tough», «worth» and «wash».

Once you have chosen the letters that you want the words to end in, you also need to choose the number of letters in the word. For example, if you select “C” and then “5”, you will get results such as «attic», «antic», etc. The results will be listed alphabetically.

We also have other resources for finding English anagrams, English words that contain specific letters, English words that start with, English word search generators, and loads of English apps and converters for language learners.

Expand your Russian vocabulary with this handy app. You can use this app to find any Russian word based on the last letter. Choose the letter that you want the word to end with and then how many letters in the Russian word and you can see all the Russian words that fit that criteria.

So if you select letter as A with number of letters as 10, you will get words like: аборигенка, аванкамера and 1,800 other words that end with A and have 10 letters.

The first column is the word, the second column is whether it’s singular or plural and third column is the gender.

Separately, we have other resources for finding Russian anagrams, Russian words that end with, Russian words that start with, Russian words that contain which letters (either together or apart) and lots of Russian worksheet creators. 

Your example works with matching the space after the string also:

grep -E '.pdf ' input.txt

What you call «string» is similar to what grep calls «word». A Word is a run of alphanumeric characters. The nice thing with words is that you can match a word end with the special >, which matches a word end with a march of zero characters length. That also matches at the end of line. But the word characters can not be changed, and do not contain punctuation, so we can not use it.

If you need to match at the end of line too, where there is no space after the word, use:

grep -E '.pdf |.pdf$' input.txt

To include cases where the character after the file name is not a space character ‘‘, but other whitespace, like a tab, t, or the name is directly followed by a comment, starting with #, use:

grep -E '.pdf[[:space:]#]|.pdf$' input.txt

I will illustrate the matching of word boundarys too, because that would be the perfect solution, except that we can not use it here because we can not change the set of characters that are seen as parts of a word.

The input contains foo as separate word, and as part of longer words, where the foo is not at the end of the word, and therefore not at a word boundary:

$ printf 'foo barnfoo.barnfoobarnfoo_barnfoon'
foo bar
foo.bar
foobar
foo_bar
foo

Now, to match the boundaries of words, we can use < for the beginning, and > to match the end:

$ printf 'foo barnfoo.barnfoobarnfoo_barnfoon' | grep 'foo>'
foo bar
foo.bar
foo

Note how _ is matched as a word char — but otherwise, wordchars are only the alphanumerics, [a-zA-Z0-9].
Also note how foo an the end of line is matched — in the line containing only foo. We do not need a special case for the end of line.
