In Arabic texting (Arabizi or Franco-Arabic), the number 7 represents the Arabic letter ح (Haa), used for its similar shape, making words like "sem7ini" (for "help me") possible, substituting for letters without English keyboard equivalents, alongside other numbers like 3 for ع (ayn) or 9 for ق (qaf).
The Arabic letter ى is called Alif Maqṣūrah (أَلِف مَقْصُورَة), meaning "restricted alif," or sometimes Alif Layyinah (أَلِف لَيِّنَة), meaning "flexible alif". It looks like the letter ي (Yaa) but without the dots and functions as a long 'a' (ā) vowel sound, appearing only at the end of words, like in "على" (ʿAlā - on).
The Letter “ي” (Ya) is the 28th and final letter of the Arabic alphabet. It's unique because it serves as both a consonant—like the “y” sound in “yes”—and a long vowel, like the “ee” sound in “see.” That it can serve this dual purpose makes it one of the most important and useful letters of Arabic.
🤔 This unique style blends Arabic sounds with English letters, using numbers to represent certain Arabic phonetics that don't have direct English equivalents. For instance, the number **7** represents the Arabic sound "ح" (Haa), while **3** stands for "ع" (Ayn).
The Arabic number system is a base 10 system (10 digits ٠١٢٣٤٥٦٧٨٩ ). Each symbol in the system stands for a number that is a multiple of 10. For example, the symbol “1” stands for 10, “2” stands for 20, and so on. Numerals (digits) are written from left to right, while letters are written from right to left.
For e.g., the Arabic letter “ح” (Haa) can't be accurately represented with Latin characters and it is, therefore, represented by the number “7”.
The Arabic language existed in earlier forms long before the 7th century and the writing of the Quran, Islam's holy book. Arabic has evolved over the centuries.
In the metaphysical philosophy of numerology, the number 7 signifies the Greek deity Athena and the Roman deity Minerva, both goddesses of war and the city protectress. People affiliated with the number seven are believed to be insightful, intuitive, truthful, introspective, intellectual, and wise.
For Muslims, 786 is sacred because the Arabic letters of the opening phrase of the Quran add up to the numerical value of 786. Asians also go by Chinese or Indian astrology and numerology. For the Chinese, even numbers are considered lucky, since it is believed that good luck comes in pairs.
Learning a foreign language can be quite intimidating, especially if you're not familiar with the grammar. Arabic is no exception; however, its unique structure makes it an easy language to learn compared to other languages such as French, German, and English.
