I don't know if it's faster, but it's different:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my %fixhash = ();
$fixhash{"could"}="would";
$fixhash{"cool"}="awesome";
$fixhash{"beso"}="nope";
$fixhash{"his"}="impossible";
my $str = "this could be so cool";
print "$str\n";
my @words = split /(\w+)/, $str;
for my $word ( @words ){
$word = $fixhash{$word} || $word;
}
$str = join( '', @words );
print "$str\n";
__END__

Programming is as much about organization and communication
as it is about coding.
I like Perl; it's the only language where you can bless your
thingy.
