... What?
English please...
I think what you might mean is to just get the first two letters from a field... in which case you can use the MySQL SUBSTRING() function...
SUBSTRING(str,pos,len)
SUBSTRING(str FROM pos FOR len)
MID(str,pos,len)
Returns a substring len characters long from string str, starting at position pos. The variant form that uses FROM is SQL-92 syntax:
mysql> SELECT SUBSTRING('Quadratically',5,6);
-> 'ratica'
This function is multi-byte safe.
SUBSTRING(str,pos)
SUBSTRING(str FROM pos)
Returns a substring from string str starting at position pos:
mysql> SELECT SUBSTRING('Quadratically',5);
-> 'ratically'
mysql> SELECT SUBSTRING('foobarbar' FROM 4);
-> 'barbar'
This function is multi-byte safe.

Next time read the manual first...
