A friend of mine ordered a package of finger puppets from somewhere in Asia. The package had something written in either Chinese, Korean, or Japanese. Can someone help me read them out of curiosity?
I don't know which way is the right way to read them.

Alternatively you could ask on this Sub reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChineseLanguage/

People do so all the time, so i am sure there will be someone who will help you out.

Edit:

I definitely can see Japanese kana there, but i dont think it is Japanese hence why i linked you to the Chinese reddit. Since Chinese and Japanese have similar kanji.

But dont quote me on that.

They hate people for asking things like this though, it's more a subreddit for people wanting to learn and practice Chinese.

Well that does make sense since it is a learning Chinese Reddit as you said. I just saw some threads over the past few days that were asking for help with reading rice cookers and T-shirts and none of the people who responded to those threads said anything that hinted they diddnt like them asking so welp.

I just think about it this way, they are essentially using their skills of the language in order to translate whatever people ask them and thus solidifying their knowledge of the language. In my eyes it is a good form of real world application of their knowledge of the language.

It's definitely simplified chinese, you can tell by the radical in the last character. It's a bit too scribbly for me though, sorry.

Ah, that has been different in the past. With people asking for question like that to be against the rules.
