| This template is used on approximately 254,000 pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage.

| 30px | This template uses Lua: |
This template returns the first word of the first parameter. Use |1= for the first parameter if the string may contain an equals sign (=). By default, words are delimited by spaces, but the optional parameter |sep= can set the separator to any character.
Usage
One parameter (space as separator):
{{First word|string}}{{First word|1=string}}
Two parameters (user-defined character as separator):
{{First word|string|sep=character}}{{First word|1=string|sep=character}}
Examples
{{First word|Foo bar baz}}→ Foo{{First word| Foo bar baz}}→ Foo{{First word|Foo}}→ Foo{{First word|Foo-bar-baz}}→ Foo-bar-baz{{First word|Foo-bar-baz|sep=-}}→ Foo-bar-baz{{First word|34,000,500|sep=,}}→ 34,000,500{{First word|Hear ye, users|sep=,}}→ Hear{{First word|1=len = a+b|sep==}}→ len
