Replace multiple words with Str_Replace

Question

I want to replace multiple synonyms with one specific word.

Answer 1

I found a very easy solution to replace multiple words in a string :

output :

  Honda is a car. 
Toyota is a car. 
Nissan is a car. 
Scion is a car

With this script you can replace as many words in a string as you want :

just place the word (that you want to replace) in the pattern array , eg :

     $pattern[0]="/replaceme/"; 

and place the characters (that will be used in place of the replaced characters) in the replacement array, eg :

      $replacement[0]="new_word"; 

Happy coding!
