Hi, guys. I have two files. One is in this format:

I_pron
would_mod
like_v
to_to
learn_v
this_pron
._sent
OK_ok
?_quest

and the second one is in this format:

I would like to learn this .
OK ?

What I have been trying to do (unsuccessfully though) is this: combining the two files so that the output would look like this:

I_pron would_mod like_v to_to learn_v this_pron ._sent OK_ok ?_quest

So far I have come up with the following script:

$DOC1="1.txt";
$DOC2="2.txt";

open (DOC1,$DOC1);
@words1=<DOC1>;
close (DOC1);

open (DOC2,$DOC2);
@lines2=<DOC2>;
close (DOC2);

foreach $line2(@lines2) {
 @words2=split / /, $line2;
  foreach $word2(@words2) {
   s/$word2/$words1[0]/;
   splice (@words1, 0, 1);
  }
 print @words2;
}

The result shows me I am no way near what I need. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
