thank much. (for want know why need strange: reason words 3 same letter in because rare. thouhgt program bot requesting websites, reading content, , saves , outputs found words 3 same letters in it. nice, isn't it? :))
you can use regex:
\b\w*(\w)\1\1\w*
regex breakup:
\b # word boundary \w* # match 0 more word chars \w # match word char , capture group #1 \1\1 # match 2 more instances of group #1 \w* # match 0 more word chars
