Ignore text after the command. Python. How to make it so that after the command 'I want', the bot will still execute the given command?

Question

Python

if event.text == "хочу" :
                        if event.from_chat:
                            str = event.text
                            array = str.split("хочу")
                            vk.messages.send(
                            chat_id=event.chat_id,
                            random_id=get_random_id(),
                            message="Передать " + array[1],
                            reply_to=event.message_id
                    )

Code example.
if event.text == "I want" - the user writes I want the command to be executed.
str = event.text
array = str.split("want") -- these commands are for splitting the user's message into two parts.

Briefly: how to make the bot react not only to "I want", but also to "I want (any words)"?
