Do thumbs count as fingers?

By definition, yes the thumb counts as a finger. That definition being: any one of the five digits, especially the four other than the thumb. The thumb is merely the only finger to possess abnormal qualities in comparison to the other four fingers. Finger is also a general term where thumb is the specific. If a person is pure German then they are also pure white, however a pure white person is not necessarily pure German.

Why is your thumb called opposable?

The thumb on the human hand has only two phalanges, or joints, whereas human fingers each have 3 phalanges. This give the thumb greater movement and enables it to do things the fingers can't do. Collectively the fingers and thumbs are known as digits. The thumb is said to be opposable to the fingers. By definition, the thumb is both a finger and not a finger. "Finger" can mean any of the four digits besides the thumb OR any digit including the thumb. It is up to the person to decide whether or not the thumb is considered a finger.
