Something like this:

(alpha|beta|gamma)[A-Za-z]{6,30}

But this will find words with 6-30 letters only if they are beginning with the words alpha, beta, or gamma.
It will not find words with alpha, beta, or gamma in the middle or in the end of the word or the string.

This will find words with 7-31 letters with word "alpha" in the middle, but not in the beginning.

(\w)(alpha)(?=\w){6,30}

This will find words with 7-31 letters with word "alpha" in the beginning.
(alpha)(?=\w){6,30}
