No, "friendly" is not a pronoun. A pronoun is a word that can be used to take the place of a noun. For example, in, "The boy is tall," the noun "boy" can be replaced by the pronoun "he": "He is tall."

"Friendly" is most often used as an adjective, describing a noun (as in, "the friendly dog") or a pronoun ("He is friendly.").

In this sentence, "He" is a pronoun that in context would represent, for example, a named or otherwise identified or designated person. "Friendly" describes "He."

Friendly may also be used as a noun, as in, "He is a friendly." Here, friendly means someone who is friendly. Particularly, this can mean someone who shares alliegance (as in military or political terms).

Apparently, there's also an adverb usage which isn't common anymore, and is largely replaced by "amicably."
