I have a string like this:

i got sooome screeeewy inpuuuuut

I need to normalize it and beside other processing, I need to remove all repeated chars,
i.e. soooome becomes some and so on.

Grammar correctness does not matter.

    You do not need regex for this. Simply use str.squeeze:

    str = 'i got sooome screeeewy inpuuuuut'
=> "i got sooome screeeewy inpuuuuut"

str.squeeze
=> "i got some screwy input"
