Toggle abbrev-mode using keyboard

Question

I would like to be able to toggle abbrev-mode on and off with ease. Of course I could use

M-x abbrev-mode

But I would like to set this to some keyboard shortcut. To this end I've added the following to my .emacs file

(global-set-key (kbd "<f7>") (lambda () (interactive) (abbrev-mode nil)))

But this doesn't have the desired effect. How do I enable this functionality?

possible duplicate of global-auto-revert-mode doesn't seem to work? — Kaushal Modi, May 08 '15 at 13:06
There is a difference between calling a function in a interactive command, and calling a function interactively. Like abo-abo specified, you just need to remove the wrapper lambda, but you could also use call-interactively in your lambda to solve the problem. — Jordon Biondo, May 08 '15 at 14:12

Remove the wrapper:

(global-set-key (kbd "<f7>") 'abbrev-mode)
