Best Answer

"Bark," in terms of the covering of a tree, is a noun.

With regards to dogs, it could be a noun or a verb depending on context.

Example 1: "The dog's bark sounded happy." In this case "bark" is used as a noun.

Example 2: "The dog decided to bark." In this case, "bark" is used as a verb.
