#19867 — [Perl Golf] Round 1

Subject[Perl Golf] Round 1
Message-ID<mailman.5442.1328442586.27778.python-list@python.org>
One sentence can contain one or more strings next to each-other, which
can be joined to make another word.

e.g.:

"to get her" == "together"
"an other" == "another"
"where about" == "whereabouts"

&etc

Solve this problem using as few lines of code as possible[1].

Good luck!

[1] Don't use external non-default libraries; non-custom word-lists excepted
