Count numbers in different countries
When someone from North America or UK count numbers on their hand it starts with the extension of the index finger and continues to the little finger. The number 5 is then represented by extending all the fingers and thumb.
- GERMANY, ITALY, SPAIN, FRANCE
When Europeans count numbers on their hands the thumb represent the number one, and the index finger is the number two and so on and so forth.
Chinese count numbers in exactly the same as the UK and North America, but counting from 6 to 19 gets kind of funky! Six with the thumb and last finger.
In Japan count numbers up to 5 on one hand is the same as the UK and USA. But the number 7, they place their index and middle finger against their open palm.
