You mean, truncate it to a certain number of words?
In XSLT 2.0, that's
tokenize($in, '\W')[position() = 1 to $n]
where $in is your input string and $n is the number of words.
It's a fair bit harder in XSLT 1.0 (most things are).
Depends if your 1.0 parser supports str:tokenize (a EXSLT function). If
it does, then it not a "fair bit harder" but it will be "a wee bit
harder" :)
See here:

I think Xalan supports this function if you are using it.
