Answer 1

The dictionary and the language model are two separate items -- you can not convert one into the other, and you can't just delete / not provide one of them -- both are needed!

The dictionary is used to tell the search algorithm what the valid words are and how they relate to phonemes / the phonetic transcription.

The language model is used during the recognition of an utterance, by using the probability of a uni-gram, bi-gram, n-gram .. when the search algorithm is considering a word-transition.
