Splitting based on delimiter but only once

Hello!

I know how to split a string entirely based on a delimiter. But I would like to know how to do the following split

Input: Country ˈk ʌ n t r i

Output: Country

and ˈk ʌ n t r i

That is, I would like to use the first 'space' as a delimiter. But not the other spaces between the letters.

Please let me know how to make this possible.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry, for me the question is still unclear? The input and oytput seems same (added and and 2nd line)

Input is a single string "Country ˈk ʌ n t r i"

Output must be 2 strings. "Country" and "ˈk ʌ n t r i" separately.

>> S = 'Country ˈk ʌ n t r i';
>> C = regexp(S,' ','split','once')
C = 
    'Country'    'ˈk ʌ n t r i'

Hello,

You can refer this idea to extend you the case of longer string

clear
input = 'Country ˈk ʌ n t r i';

[val,idx] = ismember(' ˈ',input);
n =length(idx);
output = cell(1,n);
for i = 1:n
    if i == 1
        output{i} = input(1:idx(i)-1);
    else
        output{i} = input(idx(i)+1:end);
    end
    
end

input='Country k ʌ n t r i';
str1=strtok(input)
str2=extractAfter(input,str1)
output={str1,str2}

Results:

str1 =
    'Country'
str2 =
    ' k ? n t r i'
output =
  1×2 cell array
    'Country'    ' k ? n t r i'
