I have a problem, is that when I use the string string.match and I search for a specific word, example "the" identifies the word for me so it is accompanied by another for example "they", what other string can I use so that only Look for "the" separately and that it does not identify me if it is accompanied by another like the one named above

there is surely a simpler solution, but while waiting for the first idea which comes to me and to give the size of the occurrence to seek with an array (or other) ...

char[2] = "the"
char[3] = "they"

Try here, as you can see in this example if you put "they" in the text the variable "a" that should search only for "the" detects it with everything combined and it is not the idea, I hope you can help me
