The word 'before' is not a noun.

The word 'before' is an adverb, a preposition, and a conjunction.

A noun is a word for a person, a place, or a thing.


Examples:
I've heard this speaker before. (adverb)
We'll be at the beachbefore lunch. (preposition)
I worked in fast food before I got this job. (conjunction)

The nouns in the example sentences are:

speaker (person)

beach (place)

lunch (thing)

food (thing)

job (thing)
