to get rid of potential double spaces after the explode, you could do:
foreach ($words as $word) {
if (!empty($word)) {
$first = $word;
break;
}
}
echo $first;
This will always return the first word.

how much easier do you want it? oh and guessing kinda sucks.
$str = "Hello World";
$words = explode(" ", $str);
echo $words[0];
... but what if you have double spaces, or a space at the beginning?
