In general, such words as thumb, forefinger, little finger, are not found, but rather the hand-1, 1 on the next, or 1 over and above, which we have already seen, are the type forms for which we are to look.

Individual finger names do occur, however, as in the scale of the Hudson's Bay Eskimos,[84] where the three following words are used both as numerals and as finger names: 8.

kittukleemoot = middle finger.
9.

mikkeelukkamoot = fourth finger.
10.

eerkitkoka = little finger.
Words of similar origin are found in the original Jiviro scale,[85] where the native numerals are: 1.
