Customise widget

Hello,

I’m currently modifying a clients site that was already setup with a theme. On the home page there is a widget that pulls the title and excerpt from a few posts and puts them in a slider (I have shown some of that code below). I just wanted to find out if it’s possible to have the first word of the title styled in a different way to the rest of the title.

Cheers ??

/* Slider */
function my_post_type_slider1() {
	register_post_type( 'extra-slider',
                array(
				'label' => __('Extra Slider'),
				'public' => true,
				'show_ui' => true,
				'show_in_nav_menus' => false,
				'menu_position' => 5,
				'supports' => array(
						'title',
						'custom-fields',
						'excerpt',
						'editor'
						)
					)
				);
}
