Count Values based on strings in different Table

Hello PBI Community, I'm having some issues with a measure hope anyone can help,

Let's say I have Table 1 and Table 2,

Table 1 looks something like this:

 

1A
2B
3C
4AB
5BC
6

ABC

 

And Table 2 has the list of letters:

 

AShort Text for A
BShort Text for B
CShort Text for C

 

I would like to have a bar chart with the count of rows in table 1 based on the letters it contains of table 2 for example Row 6 (table1) would count towards the 3 letters.

So the end result should be (imagine is a bar chart):

A 3

B 4

C 3

I'm kind of new to Power BI so I don't know if I should use a measure or a calculated column.

Any Suggestions? Any help is highly appreciated.
