How would I go about getting anything before a comma in a string? Like for example:

local txt1 = "Hello, world"
local txt2 = "Hello world, I'm here!"
customStringManipulation(txt1)
customStringManipulation(txt2)

Output:
Hello
Hello world

Obviously customStringManipulation being a custom function, but how would I go about doing this? I'm terrible with string patterns and I already tried something with string.sub, but only works for certains length of characters. Any help is greatly appreciated!
