Amazon Polly provides the GetLexicon API operation to retrieve the content of a
pronunciation lexicon you stored in your account in a specific region.
The following get-lexicon Amazon CLI command retrieves the content of the
example lexicon.
aws polly get-lexicon \
--name example
If you don't already have a lexicon stored in your account,
you can use the PutLexicon operation to store one.
For more information, see Uploading a lexicon.
The following is a sample response. In addition to the lexicon content, the
response returns the metadata, such as the language code to which the lexicon
applies, number of lexemes defined in the lexicon, the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of
the resource, and the size of the lexicon in bytes. The LastModified
value is a Unix timestamp.
