yes it is, vdzz.Of course it is.it is connected to your hand, Isn’t it?It has joints and bones like a finger doesn’t it?therefore it is a finger!

P.S.:It is connected to the rest of your fingers!Check under the nerve between your index finger and your thumb and you’ll see that there is a bone connected to your index finger’s joint.

Thumbs aren’t fingers because they only have 2 bones..fingers have 3!!! in your face!

they are fingers

Same as jjehovahr

Contrary to beliefs, the thumb has three joints, what confuses people is the fact that the joint is almost at your wrist, so people don’t notice. The thumb is a finger, as someone said, it’s on your certificate. Only argument people have to saying it isn’t is that it has two joints, which is actually does have three.

^_^

TL;DR Version:
Yes, thumb has 3 joints too.

you are all stupid thumb is not a finger just cause you have it and can use it for a lot of things it has no proof that the thumba is a finger

the thumb has three joints one is just covered by the skin on your hand and you can control that joint unlike the extra joint on the rest of your fingers so technically the thumb has three joints like the rest of your fingers

Yes, your thumbs are just another name for the 1st digits on both of your hands. Or what you could call “fingers”. This is the only distinguishing name given to those digits. Both fingers and toes are called digits, or phalanges, anatomically. Your thumb has an even more distinguishing name, the “thumb”, the others are just fingers and toes. But technically the digits of the hands are fingers (including the thumbs), and the digits of the feet are “toes”.

yes and no. your fingers have three digits and your thumb has two making it more agile…BUT…it’s actually up to the person to decide!

I dont think it is becuase all the other fingers have names like index,middle,pinky,ring finger but the thumb just have that name you cant say thumb finger so wat is it its not a finger
