What we have going on now might be the other way around: "When Louise asks what the aliens want, they answer: "offer weapon". A similar translation "use weapon" is made by one of the other sites in China. ... However, Louise thinks that the symbol interpreted as "weapon" might have an alternative translation, such as "tool" or "technology". China's translation likely results from interacting with the Heptapods using Mahjong, a highly competitive game." https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2543164/plotsummary/
