ujj (plural ujjak)

  1. finger, toe, digit (whether on hands or feet; inclusive of the thumb)

Usage notes
[edit]

As opposed to the usage in English, the thumb is counted as one of the fingers in Hungarian (hüvelykujj, normally with the term ujj; also without it, as hüvelyk, in archaic style), not only as one of the digits.
