No, the word 'behind' is not a noun.

The word 'behind' is a preposition and an adverb.

The preposition 'behind' connects a noun or a pronoun to another word in the sentence. Example:

  • We finally found the missing kitten behind the barn. (the preposition connects the noun 'barn' to the verb 'found')

The adverb 'behind' modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. Example:

  • Behind every success is a lot of hard work. (the adverb modifies the adjective 'every')

The word 'behind' is an informal noun (slang), a common noun, a general word for buttocks.
