+        Given a text, find the matches of potential sentence breaks,
+        alongside the contexts surrounding these sentence breaks.
+
+        Since the fix for the ReDOS discovered in issue #2866, we no longer match
+        the word before a potential end of sentence token. Instead, we use a separate
+        regex for this. As a consequence, `finditer`'s desire to find non-overlapping
+        matches no longer aids us in finding the single longest match.
+        Where previously, we could use::
+
+            >>> pst = PunktSentenceTokenizer()
+            >>> text = "Very bad acting!!! I promise."
+            >>> list(pst._lang_vars.period_context_re().finditer(text)) # doctest: +SKIP
+            [<re.Match object; span=(9, 18), match='acting!!!'>]
+
+        Now we have to find the word before (i.e. 'acting') separately, and `finditer`
+        returns::
+
+            >>> pst = PunktSentenceTokenizer()
+            >>> text = "Very bad acting!!! I promise."
+            >>> list(pst._lang_vars.period_context_re().finditer(text)) # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+            [<re.Match object; span=(15, 16), match='!'>,
+            <re.Match object; span=(16, 17), match='!'>,
+            <re.Match object; span=(17, 18), match='!'>]
+
+        So, we need to find the word before the match from right to left, and then manually remove
+        the overlaps. That is what this method does::
+
+            >>> pst = PunktSentenceTokenizer()
+            >>> text = "Very bad acting!!! I promise."
+            >>> pst._match_potential_end_contexts(text)
+            [(<re.Match object; span=(17, 18), match='!'>, 'acting!!! I')]
