"Good" as a noun
Shocked again!! I have known that the speech part of "good" is an adjective in "It is no good", but according to Longman dictionary, the speech part of "good" is a noun, but it is interpreted as an adjective meaning "useful and suitable". So do you agree that the speech part of "good" is a noun in It is "no good", "any good", "much good"? I am learning new things about English every day nowadays. What a demanding work it is! but I will keep going for it. Thank you so much and I hope to hear from you.

Good can be a noun, adjective or interjection.
The dictionary entry gives quite a number of illustrative entries, but the most common usage is adjectival;

The food is no good; we have to throw it out. (adjective).
He had much
