Concatenation is the joining (or addition) or two or more strings of text. In PHP the string concatenation operator is "."

In most programming languages, when you want to add in the value of variable within a string of text, it must be concatenated with it, and not just within a string literal (everything inside the quotation marks) in order to be recognized. PHP picks up on the usage of variables inside of literals though, but I still like to use the concatenation operator. It's just a preference thing, really.

Use arrays instead of a ton of str_replace calls.

Example:
$bad_words = array('guy', 'dog', 'cat');
$good_words = array('male', 'canine', 'feline');
$write = str_replace($good_words, $bad_words, $write);

If you're looking to handle HTML entities, I would just use the htmlentities() function, rather then hard-coding every entity that you want to have replaced.

Same thing as str_replace, but case insensitive.
