I need to find similar text in two columns: e.g. cell a1 has The Art of War and there is another similar cell in another column that has Art of War HD

$

I have text (list of items) on Column A

I want to find the the same word/number of characters on Column C and to place the formula on Column B and I want the matching result. 

A1 the art of War 

I know that somewhere in column b there is a term similar (start with the same characters) The Art of War HD in Spanish

So I want  a match between these two columns so on the result on cell B1 it will give me "The Art of" (if I ask for 10 matching characters).

Thanks,
