A little bit of exploration necessary, but we got there in the end... barring the G&P differences like everyone else.

I couldn't get my answer same as the output for G and P, but I think my workflow is correct😁

Thank you, @Tokimatsu, for a great RegEx challenge!  I love Regex - well, put it this way, most of the time when it works :) 

I followed a similar approach to @TurboToad  in solving this challenge - thank you @TurboToad for RegEx Tokenize formula tip!

My "G" and "P" are both off by one, but I think it's formatting in the hyperlink that I ran out of time to diagnose.

 (Have I cheated by removing the rows at the top and bottom that aren't part of the word list using a select records tool?)

Always a good time when I get to use the RegEx tool! :) Found a discrepancy in the output with the count from P & G. Each returned one count short from the expected output. Double checked the website and my count is correct, so could be that an edit took place some time in-between.
