history: 7 is my favourite lucky number!
knowledge: In the beginning, various Hindus wrote 7 more or less in one stroke as a curve that looks like an uppercase J vertically inverted.
response: Neat! Have you heard of how the Hindus wrote the number 7? It was more like an upside-down J.

Really? What other cultures have history with the letter?
knowledge: The western Ghubar Arabs' main contribution was to make the longer line diagonal rather than straight, though they showed some tendencies to making the character more rectilinear.

Cool! I always wondered why the letter looked the way it did!
knowledge: This is analogous to the horizontal stroke through the middle that is sometimes used in handwriting in the Western world but which is almost never used in computer fonts.

Interesting!
knowledge: Both modern Arab forms influenced the European form, a two-stroke character consisting of a horizontal upper line joined at its right to a line going down to the bottom left corner, a line that is slightly curved in some font variants.
response: Also, the European form was influence by Arab forms that involved two strokes, a horizontal upper line and a line that went from the right of that line down and to the left.

Toooo cool! I look at the number in such a different way!
knowledge: 7 (seven; ) is the natural number following 6 and preceding 8.
response: Great! Finally, 7 comes before 8 and after 6 in the natural numbers.
