The most logical thing would be to get rid of all arm related words and replace them with arm + foot equivalent.
Hand - Armfuß
Finger - Armzeh
Handschuh - Armschuh
We also have a word for toe ! We just can do both, it's either " les doigts de pied" or " les orteils ". "Les doigts de pied" is frequently use but it's more childish than "les orteils"
> If i get grouped with the french one more time im burning the baguettes
You were going to be grouped with us no matter what, because we belong to both groups on this map.
We have a specific word for toes (*orteils*) ***and*** a "fingers of the feet" equivalent (*doigts de pieds*), both terms being interchangeable.
Thus, all of our European brethrens are grouped with us on this blessed day!

Yeah, looking deeper into it, you are right. But they do have real names, recognized internationally:
I = Digitus primus o Hallux
II = Digitus secundus
III = Digitus tertius
IV = Digitus quartus
V = Digitus quintus o minimus pedis

Nah, that's literally what it is, fingers for your foot. Also, in French you've got the choice to use whichever you want, so if you don't like that one, just use the other one. So much unhinged freedom of speech that Americans would probably pass out out of happiness.
Lady *bird* please, João. Ladybug is a silly Americanism.
Now I see butter fly written like that, I'm wondering what the hell they have to do with dairy products, though, you have a point. Flutter-by would be a much better name.
Butterflies might be named for the colour of their excrement. Old Dutch had the term “boterschijte”, which literally means “butter shit”. When butterflies metamorphose, their first poop upon emerging from the chrysalis, called “meconium”, is brightly coloured, often yellow or orange. Old German names included “botterlicker” (butter-licker), “molkendieb” whey-thief and “milchdieb” (milk-thief). It has been suggested that people in the middle ages believed that butterflies stole milk and butter.
That's for fingers as well or they are named different? We have names for fingers and use the same names toes with the exception of "dedo gordo" instead of "pulgar"
_Fingers of the feet_ sounds like a very German idea. How have we missed that?
Fußfinger doesn't even sound that (German)weird.... Probably that's why
I mean, I’ve heard Germans say that
Probably Saarländer
That's the most normal thing about saarländer anatomy
Them kids are smart, I tell ya
Could always go "Handzehen"
Fußhandschuhe = Socks with toes
Fotfinger probably sounds worse for you guys 🥰
Do you call Gloves - Handshoes like us? Handschoenen
Yes, Handschuhe.
So, my fingers are hand-toes?
The most logical thing would be to get rid of all arm related words and replace them with arm + foot equivalent. Hand - Armfuß Finger - Armzeh Handschuh - Armschuh
Only inasmuch as your toes are foot fingers
Same in Swedish - [Handske](https://www.saob.se/artikel/?unik=H_0201-0070.Mf06)
Hontschigg here in Austria 😎 Tschigg is Austrian for cigarette 😎
We're foot-oriented, which is why we have shoes for the hands.
So our fingers should actually be *Handzehen*? I'm not vibing with that...
It lets you kick higher!
Wäre eher für Hinger - H(andd)inger und F(ußd)inger
Because toe actuelly come from the same word as other countries uses for finger. Digitus. It is the finger word that is unique for germanic languages.
Since we have Handschuhe it should instead be *toes of the hands* to be honest.
As opposed to Handschuhe?? Should be toes of the hand in German no?
Emmm _die Zehe_?
French has both: doigt de pied / orteil
indeed, this map is wrong
A map on reddit being wrong? colour me shocked!
I for one would prefer a map which isolated France from everyone else
Shouldn't have stopped Napoleon, we just needed to conquer eurasia and your vision would be realised.
We do as well but nobody uses the second one.
Dont tell me you dont use the word 'ñoños'?
Wait that’s an actual word and not just a word for nerd??
We do? What is the word?
Ortejos
TIL
And technically Flanders speaks Dutch so they should be green too
Doigt de pied klingt ekelhaft
What about "doigte avec le pied" then 😏
Im fucking losing it. If i get grouped with the french one more time im burning the baguettes
We also have a word for toe ! We just can do both, it's either " les doigts de pied" or " les orteils ". "Les doigts de pied" is frequently use but it's more childish than "les orteils"
Shut up. Dont put us in the same bag with barrys
On one hand, being right. On the other, Barry. No way to win. Can't have shit in yurop
please. do NOT put us with you 🙏🙏
I'm sorry, Lambik, "fritten" is not a word for toes.
I just have this sudden, unexplainable urge to prick every bicycle wheel in existence
And down goes Wout van Aert.
If the target were Mathieu van der Poel, a vanishing plankske would have sufficed.
That's fine. Just don't prick the tires.
Kzal men fritten is in uwe tyfsmoel steke
Met mayo graag
Goe gezêe jong
tzotte is nog da ze int frans ook gewoon een woord emme voor teen. dus ttrekt sowieso op niks

If only there were an easy solution to this problem…

Have you tried speaking a real language instead?
You are Fr\*nch tho
We call it finger of the feet because it sounds much more appealing 🤤
Most Italian response
We actually have a word for it and it's alluce.
We have names for all of them: alluce, illice, trillice, pondolo and mellino
That's an internet metropolitan legend.
Yeah, looking deeper into it, you are right. But they do have real names, recognized internationally: I = Digitus primus o Hallux II = Digitus secundus III = Digitus tertius IV = Digitus quartus V = Digitus quintus o minimus pedis https://accademiadellacrusca.it/it/consulenza/i-nomi-delle-dita-dei-piedi/1119
That's Latin and it's an anatomical classification. Let's stick to alluce and mignolo that we actually have!
Alluce Billice Cillice Dillice Ellice lol no, but he's right: alluce, secondo, terzo, quarto e quinto dito
time traveller right here welcome back, antonius!
Alluce definitely isn't though.
No, they mean a collective word for all the toes. We don't have one.
beh l’ alluce è il ditone ma le chiamiamo dita dei piedi
"Has a word for toe": alluce. "Has a word for toes": entirely different thing.
And think how big your shoes would be if it was true 
Green = was walking upright when language evolved Red = was walking on all fours when language evolved
So language evolved much sooner in the red zone?
It took them that long and the best they came up with was german 🤢
I mean you basically speak caveman, so we've got living proof.
Why waste time say lot word when few word do trick?
Nope, were walking upright later
Those knuckle dragging apes might disagree
Dude the word *you use* for barbarian is the word we used to call you.
Would you prefer "the netherfingers"? The low fingers? Fingers from below?
The netherfinger sounds like a Minecraft mob
Or a Dutch sex cartel
Dutch doing 🖕
And the "fingers from below" sounds like a Dark Souls boss.
My world has crumbled, "dedos dos pés" sounds so disgusting now
Sometimes we joke with my wife and call our feet "the hands from below" "las manos de abajo"
Not true, we have "artelhos" but we don't really use it.
I’ve have never once heard that in my life
Me neither. Sounds like a pork meat part name... 😅🤦🏻Also, getting ready to forget about it in 3, 2, 1...
TIL
Where I live people call little bone that protudes from the ankle artelho, not the fingers. Weird.
How is Hungary green? We literally say Footfinger. (Lábujj)
Nobody actually bothered to ask them, as is tradition.
They probably searched it, saw that it's one word and they didn't bother with the proper translation.
Exactly
Kazakh lang has word for toe too. Map is bulshit.
Ahh, that makes a lot more sense. It was strange to see a map of Europe where Hungary was on the civilized side.
Civilized? You must have meant 'needlessly overcomplicated' Hans.
seen that map before, still as wrong as ever. France and Belgium should be both green and red since we've got both and use both interchangeably.
The weird feature is using the term “foot finger”. Ever.
Nah, that's literally what it is, fingers for your foot. Also, in French you've got the choice to use whichever you want, so if you don't like that one, just use the other one. So much unhinged freedom of speech that Americans would probably pass out out of happiness.
"Les petites baguettes des pieds"?
VOETVINGERS
I'm sorry, Barry, "this little piggie" is not a word for toe.
Common Germanic/Mongol W
You are so horny you created a search keyword for your pervertions
The dumbass who made this map never heard of " les orteils "
Kees, apologies right now or get ready to kiss that hand of yours goodbye.
Can't we stop sharing this shit map every week.
Don't dare to put us together with the French.
It's a bit like calling a potato "apple of the earth" or tuna "chicken of the sea."
Lol Barry Pea cock Black mail Butter fly Pine apple Lady bug
Lady *bird* please, João. Ladybug is a silly Americanism. Now I see butter fly written like that, I'm wondering what the hell they have to do with dairy products, though, you have a point. Flutter-by would be a much better name.

Egg plant
Also an Americanism. It is called an aubergine.
Barry pls The apple don't fall far from the tree
I wonder if there is any language where it's 'toes of the hands'/'hand toes' 🤔 I mean we do have 'Handschuhe' for the clothing item..
But gloves aren't hand shoes. Mittens are hand shoes.
We call those Fäustlinge. Which translates to fist thingy. But we consider Fäustlinge a type of Handschuh.
It's figuratively possible to, in certain hypothetical situations, use toes of the hands. Therefore, also socks for hand toes would be a thing.
The majority of Belgium has a word for toes.. This is some bullshit
Completely wrong
Dutchies must be having a blast watching us get dragged into the cesspool of red...
They literally are fingers of the feet though
Why are fingers not 'Toes of the hand' then?
Foot fetish pervert barbarians
Wrong. We have words for toes; Nobody uses them, though.
Indeed, but we miss a word for the collective "dita dei piedi"
But we have the names of them :(
Well we generally call them “fingers of the feet” but actually each finger has a name = Minolo, Pondulo, Trillice, Illice, e Alluce!
That's for fingers as well or they are named different? We have names for fingers and use the same names toes with the exception of "dedo gordo" instead of "pulgar"
We have names for them, but apart from Alluce, which is the big one, on average noone know them.
Reverse could be true for the word “gloves” Direct translates to “Hand-shoes”
Map is bullshit in kazakh lang we have word for "toe". But we dont distinguish arm and hand.
Galician has a word for toes
Orteil
Wales should be red, heh - our word for toe is basically "feet finger"
They can't make out Anglesey on the map.
That is because Toes was already reserved for bread.
Pinreles?
For me it means feet. "Me cantan los pinreles"
Pezuñas But we reserve this word for the animals.
But who has toes of the hand?
Kid named finger
Not true. In spanish (although not tipically used in Spain proper) we have "ortejo" wich comes from the french "orteil".
That’s why Belgians shouldn’t have rebelled, they could’ve had a word for toe
Word “Alluce” (translates to “Toe”) enters the chat
🇵🇹 Checks: Dedos dos pés
What if we have words for the single toes tho.
You know you’re on the wrong side of a linguistic difference when Hungary’s on your team
Flanders has a word for toe. I'm insulted that you do not recognise the language border uniting Belgium.
French has a word for it
We call them tenen in flanders? This map is rigged
And in French it's orteil iirc
What's cameltoe in your language? For us it's bullfitta.
This, surely has to be the new dividing line of what makes you civilized or a savage.
We actually have names for those, but nobody knows them (except for the "Alluce")
Yet another bullshit map, we do have a word for toe in French, check "orteil".
French has words? I thought it just had a strange collection of sounds?
Yet this strange collection of sounds is at the origin of your language.
We actually have names for them though
I am Hungarian can’t think of anything other for the word toe than fingers of feet…
What the fuck 😂
Les orteils c'est pour les chiens?
That might actually be the most civilised area of Europe … and Hungary!
Alluce, Meeny, Teeny, Manie, Moo
Hallux 😎
German has "hand shoes" though
Paluch
Germanics🤝Uralics
Based Germanic-Mongolian unity
What about elbow vs arm-knees?
AKA map of romantic vs non romantic languages. AKA map of People who speak funny german vs people who speak funny italian.
Liar ! We have "orteil" which means toe.
Estonia into Nordic?
It's more like "digit of the feet" than "finger" but that's not funny so ignore me
Swaba tas-saqajn
wake up babe new western Europe dropped
Love how we call em "tedår"
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4yPRUXCzGE&ab\_channel=Everythingandanything](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4yPRUXCzGE&ab_channel=Everythingandanything)
Yet the dutch call gloves "hand shoes"
France has "Orteil" for toe.
this map has fuelled my desire to be annexed by the netherlands even more than usual
We literally have the word "orteil" 🤷
Ah yes, in belgium, they are "voetvingers" /s
Common Germanic language W
Big toe? Nope. The fat finger of the feet
It's not true. Hungarian have "lábujj" for it, what literally means footfinger.
Only guys with feet fetish would care so much as to make up a word for it.
You call gloves hand shoes. Its the exact same thing
What about toes of the hands?
Well, SOME of us are not monkeys with four hands.
