You're wrong indeed, as '|' means 'or', not 'and'.

$ echo two > grep-AND-test3
$ egrep 'two|words' grep-AND-test3
two

Please note that 'two.*words' won't be the solution (as 'words' can be
placed before 'two'), and even '(two.*words|words.*two)' won't be the
solution either ('two' and 'words' can be in a different rows of file).
