Finger
A
finger is a limb of the human body and a type of
digit, an organ of and found in the
hands of
humans and other
primates. Normally humans have five digits, the bones of which are termed phalanges, on each hand, although some people have more or fewer than five due to
congenital disorders such as
polydactyly or
oligodactyly, or accidental or medical
amputations. The first digit is the
thumb, followed by
index finger,
middle finger,
ring finger, and
little finger or pinky. According to different definitions, the thumb can be called a finger, or not.
