The force of friction is ultimately the result of forces between atoms of the two constituent objects that are touching.
At the atomic level, the explanation of friction is complex and it is not an resolved and well defined scientific topic, but leaving details aside, one is certain that atomic forces are at the origin of friction.
Two simple aspects are important to mention. First, the atoms in different contacting surfaces experience attractive and repulsive forces when interacting with atoms in another surface when there is a separation of less than a few angstroms.
Second, the irregularity of two surfaces in contact mean that sliding friction and static friction will be different and sliding friction may involve breaking atoms or sections of material from the surfaces.
The types of friction and the complexities of friction are too enormous to begin to characterize in a short answer beyond saying that it must involve atomic and materials processes at the interface of two interacting materials. And, that does not even include internal friction such a a fluid would experience.

Friction is the force that causes static charge
Friction is caused by force. If you move books across a table (a force) It causes friction. High friction is if the books move slowly, low friction is if the books move smoothly.
Rolling friction causes a car to stop.
Friction is an action, frictional force is a force. Typically the static or kinetic friction of an object causes a frictional force when there is an attempt at moving the object, the frictional force is always opposite to the applied force, as it is the force you must overcome to move the object.
gravity (up to down) friction

Friction is when two objects touch each other, either smooth or rough friction causes the object to slow down. Also an unbalanced force is when the net force isn't 0 which causes a object to move and cause friction other than a balanced force is when the net force is 0.
Friction forces.
friction, dah!
Friction is a force present when things rub against eachother. Friction causes heat energy, and it also causes motion between surfaces to be reduced.
Friction is considered a force because it acts on an item and causes changes, which is what a force is. Nothing would happen if the item was in an area where friction was not possible or if friction was where an object was not since they need each other to exert external effort.
