def test(strs):
    # Join words whose lengths are prime numbers using list comprehension
    return " ".join(strs for strs in strs.split() if is_prime(len(strs)))

def is_prime(n):
    # Check if a number is prime
    return n > 1 and all(n % j for j in range(2, int(n ** 0.5) + 1))

# Example 1
strs1 = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
print("Original list of words:")
print(strs1)
print("Words whose lengths are prime numbers in the said string:")
print(test(strs1))

# Example 2
strs2 = "Omicron Effect: Foreign Flights Won't Resume On Dec 15, Decision Later."
print("\nOriginal list of words:")
print(strs2)
print("Words whose lengths are prime numbers in the said string:")
print(test(strs2))

Sample Output:

Original list of numbers:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
Words whose lengths are prime numbers in the said string:
The quick brown fox jumps the

Original list of numbers:
Omicron Effect: Foreign Flights Won't Resume On Dec 15, Decision Later.
Words whose lengths are prime numbers in the said string:
Omicron Effect: Foreign Flights Won't On Dec 15,
