How do you keep !content!! from overflowing inside grid items?

<div class="grid"> <div class="item">1</div> <div class="item">2</div> <div class="item">3</div> <div class="item">4</div> <div class="item">5</div> <div class="item">6</div> <h2> fweuihewifniewnfiewijnefiwenfienweifmewifeniwenfeiwnfyuwebweewubweuuwebf7yubwybcyuwbyuwbyufefwfewr</h2> </div>

The h2 goes past into others. i tried setting h2 display:grid. I don't know what im doing honestly.

You can use the CSS setting: "overflow: auto;" to provide a scroll bar instead of allowing the contents to extend beyond the constrained size.
