Botched test sheds hilarious insight into meaning of 'government'

Learning a new language is tough, no question. Fortunately, students' errors provide fantastic entertainment for the rest of us. Case in point?

We're quite certain the child had to have been confused — no one would intentionally define government as a "place where garbage is put," right? Because that would be totally inaccurate. While some commenters are arguing over whether this is fake, we have a better question: Is it wrong? [Source]
