Why it capture only "word", but not all the string

import re pattern = r"(.+) \1" match = re.match(pattern, "word word") if match: print ("Match 1") In Powershell the pattern above will capture all the string, because metasymbol ". " is captures anym symbol, so the match. groups() should be "word word", but not "word"

Because the space is in the pattern. I understand you searching all characters on the left of a space. The result is "world".
