QA checker regex issues

I had created some custom regexes to check end-punctuation for English-Greek texts a pretty long time ago. Testing again with Studio 2021 they do not seem to work as expected. For example I use the following so that it flags source text containing ? (English question mark) and target text not containing ; (Greek question mark). However, it flags target text containing ;

By the way, what is the exact regex flavour used by Studio?

Report if both target and source RegEx patterns match
Question mark added
[^\?]$
