You haven't mentioned which language you're using. Different languages have different implementations of Regular Expressions, which support different features.

The following should work in .NET:
(?<!\()\b\w+\b(?!\))

This uses zero-width negative assertions[^] to ensure that the word doesn't start with an opening parenthesis, or end with a closing parenthesis.



"These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined."
- Homer
