Abstract

Digitalization and Internet communication have been highly integrated into all levels of social development, and media convergence has become an inevitable trend in information processing and dissemination. The dictionary based on media convergence will also be an inevitable choice for lexicographers. The present paper, starting from the specification of the connotation and function of media convergence, sets forth the innovative mechanism of dictionary compilation and publication in the context of media convergence through briefly outlining the origin and development of convergence, including: a) the new methods and tendency of dictionary-making; b) the characteristics of and the approach to media convergence for lexicography; c) the structure and function of the dictionaries based on media convergence; d) the innovation of lexicographical institutions in the age of media convergence. The media convergence provides a major opportunity for the digital transformation of dictionaries, and the core is to adopt the media convergence approach and digital communication technology to produce multimodal lexicographical texts which can be queried and displayed through various media and digital terminals.
