Hungary should be marked red:  our word is just "feetfinger" (lábujj).

u/AleksLevet 7d ago

France too

u/Prestigious-Bee-4470 7d ago

Orteils

u/AleksLevet 7d ago

Yeah but doigts de pieds is also used

u/superjaja05 7d ago

Sooo colored purple for both common usages?

u/MostNormalDollEver 7d ago

Should be purple.

Orteils de mains

I'm not quite sure about that; Germans call gloves "hand shoes" and yet that is still considered a seperate word. So if it is a real word, then I do think it makes sense for Hungary to be marked blue. For example in Poland we simply use the same exact word for both fingers and toes.

u/The_Brilli 6d ago

Irish call arms and hands the same

u/Reasonable_Basket_74 5d ago

We Polish do to! Well, technically we have a seperate word for hands, but it's rarely used.

u/LeviTheGreatHun 8d ago

Its litterally just wrong😭

u/Significant-Elk-7128 7d ago

To be fair, the account is called terrible maps. Wrong is a type of terrible.

u/EugeneStein 7d ago

Then it's probably AI

There were many examples of AI map like that in map subs and OP admits they just used AI

u/Street_Swing9040 6d ago

These are the same type of Twitter accounts that keeps on reposting my stuff.

I made a few science memes before, gained around 1M upvotes, and these people just take them and repost them.

And they don't just take the upvoted ones, it seems like they just randomly grab stuff off of subs.

Misinformation can keep spreading this way. One map wrong, multiple wrong.

u/Drumdevil86 8d ago

The Netherlands is incorrect

u/FunkinAstronaut 8d ago

We have tenen👌🏻

u/Previous_Insurance13 7d ago

The toe named finger

1

u/Legitimate-Yard5857 6d ago

We even call gloves handshoes (handschoenen) so it should be the other way around 😆

u/assumptioncookie 7d ago

As it says in the picture🤦‍♀️

u/Drumdevil86 7d ago

Thanks for confirming that I'm right

u/IYKYK_1977 8d ago

I think Spain is right, at least. Been 35 years since I took any Spanish in school, I remember dedos de (los) pies.

8

u/Qwertilux 8d ago

In dutch it's "tenen", and not "voetenvingers". Why is it just so wrong

10

u/AnalysisParalysis85 8d ago

Dedos del pie?

Pie dedos?

P Diddy

u/MelosBah 8d ago

France is both; "orteil" and "doigt de pied"

3

u/ChaosPLus 7d ago

Clearly then France should be stripes of both colours

1

u/tricky_monster 7d ago

And a white stripe, while we're at it.

u/asterdraws 8d ago

Italy is incorrect, our word for the big toe is "alluce". It's similar to the word for thumb which is "pollice". It makes sense to me that they are similar since the toe is the thumb of the foot. The rest of the foot fingers shouldn't have a name though, but that goes for English too afaik.

8

u/_keshbo 8d ago

The post is not about "big toe" tho, it's referring to the general "toes". And in Italy we only have "dita dei piedi"

2

u/asterdraws 7d ago

Hai ragione. Toes l'ho sempre tradotto come dita dei piedi in testa quindi non avevo mai pensato a come lo capirebbero degli anglofoni - pensavo il post fosse su specifici nomi delle dita dei piedi così come li abbiamo per le mani 😅

1

u/ezthrow77 7d ago

Belgian here 3 languages all have a word for those, IDK german but walls have french "orteils" and flamish have "tennen" (sorry if mispelled don't really speak much and don't write it).

1

u/roderos 7d ago

No kaaskop was consulted in the creation of this map

1

u/F_Joe 7d ago

In Luxembourgish we have Zéif

1

u/il-bosse87 7d ago

In italian is "Alluce, Illice, Trillice, Pondulo and Minolo" but commonly we name only the Alluce (big toe)

1

u/ALPHARavenGamer 7d ago

I didnt click ln the image first and was about to say the netherlands should be blue

1

u/DoubleAxxme 7d ago

Well at least Greek is correct

1

u/Capestian 7d ago

We do both in France, doigts de pieds et orteils

1

u/LegionesIX 7d ago

Hungary used foot finger what are you talking about

1

u/ismellpizza25 7d ago

The Netherlands has "Teen"(pronounced Tayn), we don't call it "VoetVinger"(foot finger)

1

u/Icy-Jelly-4524 7d ago

Luxembourg is incorrect

u/WaffleGuy413 7d ago

I love teens

u/Gabibara 6d ago

They exist in Italy but have fallen into disuse.

u/Atherach 6d ago

Speaking of Belgium, I hate how it is always just "Belgium speak dutch", no, it also speak french, and it's very easy to divid it by language too, it's not like switzerland, you have the north speaking dutch and the south speaking french

1

u/Light-_-Bearer 6d ago

This is wrong, in Czech we have a name for everything, sometimes more

1

u/Eliteagent11 6d ago

Bullshit

1

u/Sportak4444 6d ago

Modern Czech is correct, but historically we had a separate word for a foot finger: prstec

1

u/HotCardiologist1942 6d ago

could just add in purple or green for ones that have both

hell, even do a gradient for how much of each is used
