In Python, a dictionary element is accessed by its key.
A dictionary is a collection of key-value pairs, where each key must be unique. To access a specific element in the dictionary, you can use the following syntax:
```python
dictionary_name[key]
```
Here, `dictionary_name` refers to the name of the dictionary, and `key` is the specific key corresponding to the element you want to access.
For example, suppose you have a dictionary named `employee_info` with keys representing the names of employees and their corresponding values as their ages. If you want to access the age of an employee named "John", you can do so using:
```python
employee_info["John"]
```
This will return the value associated with the key "John", which in this case would be the age of the employee named John.
