i have tried to do this so many different ways but im not sure how to do it,
i have a file with say multiple lines in it, it has a word in each line i
want to keep but i also need the kept word in every first and second line
joined together with some text in the middle

this is what file looks like
-------------------------------------

line test 6 tree  /keptpart/1_1/ word test

line test 6 tree  /keptpart/2_2/ test word

line test 6 tree  /keptpart/3_1/ word test

line test 6 tree  /keptpart/4_2/ test word

line test 6 tree  /keptpart/5_1/ word test

line test 6 tree  /keptpart/6_2/ test word

line test 6 tree  /keptpart/7_1/ word test

line test 6 tree  /keptpart/8_2/ test word

--------------------------------------


i need to have the above file printed as below

"/keptpart/1_1/ joined to /keptpart/2_2/"

"/keptpart/3_1/ joined to /keptpart/4_2/"

"/keptpart/5_1/ joined to /keptpart/6_2/"
