Best Answer

Around is actually a preposition. A noun is person, place, or thing, and "around" does not fit into any of those. A verb is what the noun does, and "around" is not an action.

However, a preposition is pretty much a locator of the noun/pronoun, for example, "the bird is on the tree" or "the river lies underneath the bridge."

Therefore, "around" is a preposition. For example, "the school is around the corner."
