In this paper, we propose new basis functions defined on curved sides or faces of curvilinear elements (polygons or polyhedrons with curved sides or faces) for the weak Galerkin finite element method. Those basis functions are constructed by collecting linearly independent traces of polynomials on the curved sides/faces. We then analyze the modified weak Galerkin method for the elliptic equation and the interface problem on curvilinear polytopal meshes with Lipschitz continuous edges or faces. The method is designed to deal with less smooth complex boundaries or interfaces. Optimal convergence rates for $H^1$ and $L^2$ errors are obtained, and arbitrary high orders can be achieved for sufficiently smooth solutions. The numerical algorithm is discussed and tests are provided to verify theoretical findings.
