What a part of speech is the word so?

The word "so" can be multiple parts of speech, depending on its context:

* Adverb: When it modifies an adjective, verb, or another adverb, it's an adverb.

* Example: "The weather is so cold."

* Conjunction: When it connects two clauses, it's a conjunction.

* Example: "He was tired, so he went to bed."

* Pronoun: When it refers to something previously mentioned, it's a pronoun.

* Example: "The weather is bad, so I'm staying home."

* Determiner: When it introduces a noun phrase and means "such," it's a determiner.
