php preg_match, matching when 2 words might come in random sequence

Question

Is it possible to match two words that might come in random sequences? Examples:

$title = \"2 pcs watch for couple\";
$title = \"couple watch 2 pcs\";
         


        

Answer 1

If you're just testing for the presence of the two words in the string you could use

'/couple.*2 pcs|2 pcs.*couple/'
