How do I replace a string at the end of a variable using a bash shell script?

shoebill

Usage is ${name/%pattern/string}

Check line 3.

declare -A MyBucketList
MyBucketList=([1]="The rain in Spain stays mainly on the plain" [2]="To get to Mars you need air" [3]="Climb Mount Everest")
echo ${MyBucketList[1]/%plain/farm}

The word plain gets replaced with farm

$ ./associative_array.sh
The rain in Spain stays mainly on the farm

We are using arrays but it applies to any variable.
