I’m hoping to print only the last word in every line of my file as in the below example. I tried using awk ‘print {$NF}’` but it doesn’t give the output I like as not all lines are of the same length.

My file contains lines like the below

ID_1   ABC;GHI;JKKK;KLLL 
ID_2   JKL;YUI
ID_3   OPKJ
ID_4   uncK;oPTY 

and I wish to have output as below

KLLL
YUI
OPKJ
oPTY

I would appreciate it very much if you’ve got any ideas on how to accomplish the above on bash
