How do you convert list to string

Hi I have a pretty basic question. I need to convert a list of names and numbers into a string. ie.

"1 2 3 image merchandice " to {“1”,“2”,“3”,“image”,“merchandice”} can anyone help me with this small script.

thanks

well from the sound of it you want to take a string and coerce it into a list

set x to "1 2 3 image merchandice"
set y to words of x
