Of those, I'd prefer semi-regular expressions (but personally currently lean towards irregular expressions). As they lose the nice properties, there's certainly nothing "super"-regular about them.


Super-x may also mean that it has some extra properties wrt x. In fact, it was the original meaning that has drifted to its more common use today. Cf. “hyper” as in “hypersonic”. Both “super” and “hyper” even mean the same thing (“over”/“above”) in their original languages (Latin and Greek respectively).


What about pseudo-regular expressions?
