title: Regex to match words beginning with A and last words in line
body: <p>I'd like to apply regular expression to a dictionary text format, like this:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-none prettyprint-override"><code>[aidwulf] s zool vrsta hijene (Proteles cristata) Aron's beard
  
  [earanzrod] s bot *ivizma (Ver- bascum Thapsus) Abacca
  
  [a'baid'on] vi biti na pomoći, stajati uz *ok abide with
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I need two regular expressions.First I need a regular expression to match every letter Aa in words before the last in line which begin with letter Aa. In my examples that would match <strong>A</strong> in <strong>Aaron's</strong> in the first example and <strong>a</strong> in <strong>abide</strong> in the third example. </p>
  
  <p>The second regular expression would match every last word in line, (including hyphenated two-words compounds) and words that begin with asterisk. In my examples this expression would match words <strong>beard</strong>, <strong>Abacca</strong>, <strong>with</strong>, as last words in lines, and <strong>*ok</strong>, <strong>*ivizma</strong> as words beginning with an asterisk.</p>
