Is a thumb a finger?

[Loquacious]

im really shocked people are debating this shit.

 

[DOS_patos]

It's the anchor finger. The leverage

 

[OhMars]

Different dictionaries say different things. I say it's a finger.

 

[Mooney]

Technically yes but scientifically na

 

[Englishdude]

No.

 

[Duwop]

it's hooked up to a difference socket so it has wider motion and different functions, but imo it's still a finger

 

[1/2]

whats the other option?

 

[Smokeejo404]

If it were a Finger...wouldn't it be called a Finger, not a Thumb?

 

[Soul_Rattler]

No it's not.

I will literally fight over this.

 

[FIRE BOBBY SLOWIK]

[Duwop]

A thumb is a digit, not a finger.

You have 5 digits on each hand unless you have a hook for a hand like @TonyDubbz

 

[Rubato]

Let’s jump this nigga @Soul_Rattler

 

[Loquacious]

Digits are numbers not fingers.

 

[Loquacious]

I don’t have numbers on my hands. I do have five fingers tho.

So a pinky ain't a finger then

 

[Soul_Rattler]

I don’t have numbers on my hands. I do have five fingers tho.

I am speechless.


I have no speech.
