    What about /word?

    It can be combined with operators just like anything else:

    the lazy cow jumped over the high moon
    

    cursor at start, d/highEnter:

    high moon
    

    Bonus

    Also, you might be interested in learning some of the ex mode commands like that:

    the lazy cow jumped over the high moon
    the hazy cow jumped over the high moon
    the noble cow jumped over the high moon
    the crazy cow jumped over the high moon
    

    Now enter

    :g/azy/ norm! /jumped<CR>d/high/e<CR>
    

    (Note: <CR> denotes C-vC-m for the enter key (^M))

    Result:

    the lazy cow  moon
    the hazy cow  moon
    the noble cow jumped over the high moon
    the crazy cow  moon
    

    The /e flag achieves inclusive behaviour like with f; To get ’till behaviour instead:

    :g/azy/ norm! /jumped<CR>d/high/<CR>
    

    Result:

    the lazy cow high moon
    the hazy cow high moon
    the noble cow jumped over the high moon
    the crazy cow high moon
