It isn't splitting on the 'two three' because it doesn't match.
/ \s{1,}/ matches a space followed by one or more whitespace characters
(you have a space in front of your \s)

Can anyone please tell me why the code below is not splitting the 'two
three'?

my $string = 'one two three four';
my @temp = split(/ \s{1,}/,$string);
