What part of speech is bloody?

"Bloody" can be a few different parts of speech depending on its use:

* Adjective: When it describes something as covered in blood, as in "the bloody knife."

* Adverb: When it intensifies an adjective or another adverb, as in "It was a bloody cold day."

* Interjection: When it expresses strong emotion, often anger or frustration, as in "Bloody hell! I forgot my keys!"

* Noun: In very specific contexts, "bloody" can be a noun, referring to blood itself, but this is very rare.

It's important to consider the context to determine its part of speech.
