Question Grep

I have a question about grep command in Unix. I want to search for a particular world from a file that world should be in the begining of the line and exactly match.
e.g.
say I have a file called find.txt
REM 1 2 3 4
REM 5 6 7 8
REMARK 1 2 3 4
1 2 3 REM 4

The result should print the above two lines only i.e.
REM 1 2 3 4
REM 5 6 7 8


What I want is similar to this command but this does not work.

grep -iw "^REM"

Any idea how to do this.

Thanks for your time.

remquo(3M)						  Mathematical Library Functions						remquo(3M)

NAME
remquo, remquof, remquol - remainder functions SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ] #include <math.h> double remquo(double x, double y, int *quo); float remquof(float x, float y, int *quo); long double remquol(long double x, long double y, int *quo); DESCRIPTION
The remquo(), remquof(), and remquol() functions compute the same remainder as the remainder(), remainderf(), and remainderl() functions, respectively. See remainder(3M). In the object pointed to by quo, they store a value whose sign is the sign of x/y and whose magnitude is congruent modulo 2**n to the magnitude of the integral quotient of x/y, where n is an integer greater than or equal to 3. RETURN VALUES
These functions return x REM y. If x or y is NaN, a NaN is returned. If x is +-Inf or y is 0 and the other argument is non-NaN, a domain error occurs and a NaN is returned. ERRORS
These functions will fail if: Domain Error The x argument is Inf or the y argument is 0 and the other argument is non-NaN. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the invalid floating-point exception is raised. USAGE
An application wanting to check for exceptions should call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an exception has been raised. An application should either examine the return value or check the floating point exception flags to detect exceptions. ATTRIBUTES
