You _could_ do replace($string,concat('(',string-join($palatal,'|'),')-y'),'$1E') although unless your xslt engine can spot that the regexp is built from constant terms it might be more efficient (if less maintainable) to write the regexp as a string literal rather than build it up out of smaller strings, then m most likely it will be compiled inta an efficient regular expression object at compile time. replace($string,'(S|Z|C|St)-y', '$1E') David
