hello in one previous post of kaldi, i found fst-union which merge two different fst graph.

so my question is 
suppose i have a.fst graph and another b.fst graph i have created with only one phrase transcription file with new lexicon, now if i merge a.fst and b.fst using fst-union which gives output as out.fst. does new out.fst graph will contain new lexicon of b.fst?

That will only work if the words.txt files are compatible, which they normally won't be if you are using different lexicons.  Or you could maybe map the integers and make a words.txt that covers them both.  But I won't be answering any follow-up questions on this.  You need to read about FSTs at www.openfst.org and also search online for hbka.pdf to read about how they are used in speech recognition.
