Ex:

"This is the string and it is this long"

This is
the string
and it
is this
long

I found some long functions to achieve this but I couldn't help but
think that it could be done in a couple lines.

Possible?

Thanks.

I'm not sure it's the best method, but it didn't take long to come up with this:

<?php

$string = "This is the string and it is this long";

if (preg_match_all('/(?:(?:\w+\s+){2}|(?:\w+$))/', $string, $matches)) {
var_dump($matches[0]);
}


?>
