2月27日下午，国防部新闻发言人吴谦大校主持例行记者会。正告民进党当局“早晚要来收了你们”；警告美方一些人“别想在台湾问题上‘偷鸡’”……妙语连珠令人印象深刻。这些霸气回复应如何翻译？官方给出了标准译文：
早晚要来收了你们
官方译文：We will come and get you, sooner or later.
有记者问：据报道，台军“汉光41号”演习实兵演练时间将大幅增加，还在美方鼓动下扩大动员后备力量到3000人规模。
吴谦：民进党当局幻想“倚美谋独”、“以武拒统”，这是对形势、民意和实力对比严重的误判，不自量力、极为危险。正告民进党当局：螳臂当车只能自取灭亡，早晚要来收了你们。
Wu Qian: The DPP authorities have an illusion of “soliciting US support for independence” and “resisting unification by force”. It is a serious miscalculation of the situation, the public opinion and the comparison of strength. Overreaching itself in such a way is extremely dangerous. We warn the DPP authorities that holding back the tide with a broom will only end up in self-destruction. We will come and get you, sooner or later.
不要再做全世界的“谎言制造者”
官方译文：Stop being the world factory of lies.
有记者问：外界质疑路透社可能长期配合美国防部信息战项目。
吴谦：我们希望美方拿出大国的样子，不要再做全世界的“谎言制造者”。
Wu Qian: We hope the US side behave in a manner befitting its status as a big power, and stop being the world factory of lies.
别想在台湾问题上“偷鸡”，偷鸡不成蚀的可不止是一把米
官方译文：Playing sneaky tricks on Taiwan would only backfire.
有记者问：据台媒报道，有美军印太总部官员参与“汉光”演习兵推。
吴谦：我们警告美方一些人，别想在台湾问题上“偷鸡”，偷鸡不成蚀的可不止是一把米。
Wu Qian: We warn some individuals of the US side: playing sneaky tricks on Taiwan would only backfire.
