Yes, there were some typos in my posts. Also, I only tested the regular expressions through the Replace dialog. But I just created a macro containing this:

document.selection.Replace("<(denk|wil|dacht|kan|wilde|ben|zie)je>","1 je",eeFindNext | eeReplaceAll | eeFindReplaceRegExp);

Here at least, it works as expected.
