That's right. But the finite string can be a description of a Turing machine.
That way a Turing machine can say someting about another Turing machine, even
simulate its complete execution. Or it can count something simple like the
number of states or the set of symbols that the described Turing machine may
write but not erase. But there are questions that no Turing machine can
answer from a description of another Turing machine.
