Answer 1

Following answer by Amir Raminfar, I found this solution. In my opinion, it's better than accepted answer, because it works even if you have a space at the end of the string or with languages (like French) that have spaces between last word and punctuation mark.

"Je veux supprimer le dernier    mot !".replace(/[\W]*\S+[\W]*$/, '')
"Je veux supprimer le dernier"

It strips also the space(s) and punctuation marks before the last word, as the OP implicitly required.

Peace.
