I thought you wanted to capture either words or hyphens, so I just replaced \w, which also consumes underscores, with [a-zA-Z], which doesn't consume the underscores. So the new regex
[a-zA-Z-]+ will consume one or more letters or hyphens. The one I replaced it with should work for sprint-phone_cellphone.
