What part of speech is speech?

This is a bit of a tricky one! It depends on the context:

* As a noun: "Speech" refers to the act of speaking, the ability to speak, or the words spoken. For example:

* "Her speech was inspiring."

* "The loss of speech is a serious disability."

* As a verb: "Speech" can also be used as a verb meaning "to speak". However, this usage is uncommon and often found in formal or literary contexts. For example:

* "The children were speeching in hushed tones."
