Abstract: The problem of reconstructing words from its subwords is is due to Schützenberger and Simon: for given n and alphabet size t, what is the smallest k such that every word of length at most n is uniquely determined by its different subwords of length at most k. Levenshtein [4] and Lothaire [6] proved that k = ⌈n+12 ⌉ for every t, which bound is sharp for binary alphabet. In this paper we give an improvement of the theorem of Levenshtein and Lothaire for a general alphabet and with lower and upper bounds for the number of occurrences of letters in the words
