    Can@‚³‚ρ@mean in?


    ‘ΫŒπ—¬ƒp[ƒeƒB[ - Tokyo International Party

    The entire sentence is “閉まるドア 小指はさんだ”, and I know that it is saying "I shut my little finger in the door", but I'm not exactly sure what san means here. I looked up several different meanings of "san" and I couldn't find anything that worked with this sentence.

    Past tense of はさむ is はさんだ

    Oh, that's why I hate when they use hiragana for kanji. Thank you.

    It also would have been more obvious had they not dropped the を
