As it just came to mind, sure a matter of those skilled and inspired:

A "simple" App and website, maybe called Nama-rupa-Khmer (neamarup khmai). With a slogan of maybe "Help/Join rebilding our world of convention"

Simple options:
* search word => gives entrance and already submitted pictures
* random word => -"-
* last contributions => give last words with submissions.
matching a word no contribution: invitation to take and share picture and/or voice.
* vote new crontibution: here one can add "right" and/or "like"

Submission: once registed an account (Name, Tel.Nr, Picture or FB account), one is able to contribute own pictures or voice to words, vote, maybe add coment.
Maybe a limitation of contribution for popular words.
Content: jpg, Name contibutor, dedication, date name_1.jpg, 2.jpg
mp3/arm, - " -

Voting: every like gains 10 point, every right 20. Good if having also an approving them of monks giving "appove" if picture fits to word 50 points and "Sadhu for generosity" for each contibution (20 points).

Seasonal, if there are givers of wins (say the ten best can travel with Ven. to India), certain additional motivation and honor can be shared.

Since people love pictures in involves them to get word and meaning more understood, discussions and exchange arises. Many are still not able to read well and also seldom know meaning. It inspires also creativity and joy with the targeted receiver.
The tool can also be used in what ever school and educational training as part of creative involvement.

Certain notification possibilities, such as "you got a like" or watched words

Conditions: all of course without trade or money involved. Contributions are dedicated to the Sangha and it's faithful followers to be used for non-commercial use for good undertakings ever on.

At certain point, once merely complete, an illustrated dictionary could be printed, taking the best submissions, as well and audio, visual ebook of the dictionary.

Later such as quizzes... translations into english... what ever can be made likewise.

My person guesses that the development, for someone skilled, isn't really a very huge thing. Maintaining of space and traffic could be possible (once some follow, very many follow).

Similar struction of app and website could be used for other dictionaries, glossars as well, thinking on Pali.

Huge field of merits.

Atma tought that it might be for someone an inspiration to give the Khmer-words of the Chun Nath dictionary also illustrations, since many meanings are unknown, or will be unknown soon.

A kind of "nama-rupa", give a name a form, "game", very useful to understand Dhamma and perception.

An idea would be to publish daily some words and let people seek to make pirctures to express the meaning of the world and let others vote on them. The best would be put into the dictionary which is currently repeared for the Sangha.

A task that may make the language and cultur much alive, leading to investigations for young and old everywhere.

Make a picture that transports the meaning of ""

Or explaining  "" to a monk with a picture you made for him.
