Comparing words in two different cells
I'm looking to compare word changes between two different cells in order to keep track of what changes.

For example in A1 I have "You need to pick a color and size" and in b1 I have "You need to pick a size and colour". In c1 I want to have the word "size and colour" (beginning to end of the change) so that I know what has changed between the two cells. (not just where, but what)

If there are multiple changes, can it do something like this in C1? "size and colour, next change"

Thanks.
