The word 'quick' is a noun when it refers to the bed of a fingernail, the outermost living layer under the nail.

Otherwise, 'quick' is an adjective, a word used to describe a noun. The word 'quick' sometimes used as an adverb instead of quickly.

The colloquial use means "living" (e.g. the quick and the dead).
