Noun
Sir,
The Word "best" is superlative degree of the word "good".
We can say------ "Ram is the best boy in the class."
But some where I have read that "the best" is a noun.
Can you explain me with a sentence, how "the best" works as a noun.
---------------------------------------------
We are the best of friends.
I am not able to understand the meaning of this sentence please explain it.
