You can modify
_generate_breadcrumb() method in page class and limit the length of $crumb['name']Or you can use jQuery.
I am not aware of your programming knowledge and whether this much information is sufficient or you need further guidance.

I need more detailed instructions because I can't use a programming language.

Or...
He/She can use the Advanced Sidebox plugin and define the length of the thread title to whatever he/she wants and it will end in an ellipsis.
I think a few other "Latest Threads" sideboxes will do the same thing as well.

can't it be done without using a plugin?

Maybe, but you have to know coding/programming in order to modify the code to your liking.
