How to match russian characters (alphabet) with regex

[av]

Does someone know how to match russian characters (alphabet) with regex. I tried \w but it does match them.

Thanks

Apparently I haven't found anything better than \S. If you need
something more robust you can always type:
/[αβξ]
(sorry I used Greek symbols since I don't know the Russian ones).
You can input them as digraphs (basically with i_CTRL-K, see :h i_^k,
:h :digraphs).

Best,

If Vim 'encoding' is utf-8 or cp1251 you can match Russian alphabet with
/[А-я,Ё,ё]

Sorry, silly mistake, it should obviously be
/[А-яЁё]

I'm not sure if it will work with utf-8, but for cp1251 you should be able to modify the 'iskeyword' option to match all the characters you want, then use the \k search item.
