Odd

A finger is a type of
digit, an organ of manipulation and sensation found in
the hands of humans and other primates. Normally humans
have five digits on each hand (exceptions are polydactyly,
hypodactyly and digit loss). The first digit is the thumb.
Some English speakers may consider the thumb to be a type
of finger, leading to the conclusion that humans have
five fingers on each hand. Others may consider the term
"finger" to apply only to those four digits
that are medial to the thumb, leading to the conclusion
that humans have four fingers on each hand... |
