I am working on a lengthy Farsi text with the help of a perl script

But some patterns refuse to budge and I am totally clueless what to do.
Original text
متی
starting at position 1 and ending the line with a return.
My regex
s/^متی$/<title>$&<\/title>/;
This looks right to me. I verified that it works as I expect on this
email, with:
perl -p -e 's/^متی$/<title>$&<\/title>/;' < email.txt
This should match the against the contents of $_, with ^ and $ anchoring
the beginning and end of content of $_.
Perhaps, $_ contains something that you don't expect (like one word at a
time.)
finds all lines with the word at whatever in sentence position -
instead of picking only lines with the single word متی on the line.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
