Kanji are Chinese characters. If the writing you're looking at is made up solely of kanji without any other types of characters, it is most likely Chinese. If you see other characters that look different, such as Japanese hiragana, you're more likely reading Japanese. Even though Japanese uses some of the same kanji that appear in Chinese, they may be pronounced differently or even have a different meaning. If you see kanji alongside Korean script, it typically represents a word borrowed from Chinese.
