Abstract: Recently, a lower bound was established on the size of linear sets in projective spaces, that intersect a hyperplane in a canonical subgeometry. There are several constructions showing that this bound is tight. In this paper, we generalize this bound to linear sets meeting some subspace $pi$ in a canonical subgeometry. We also give constructions of linear sets attaining equality in this bound, both in the case that $pi$ is a hyperplane, and in the case that $pi$ is a lower dimensional subspace.
