ADJECTIVES USED AS A NOUN:

RICH:
 The rich people are better off than the poor. Here,"the rich" is being used as a noun. Similarly," the poor" can also be used as noun and an adjective.

SICK: Its the duty of a doctor to take care of the sick. Again, "the sick" is a noun but "sick" is an adjective.

Other examples: the wise, the meek, the insecure and so on. The golden rule is that most of the times, if you place "the" before an adjective, it becomes a noun.

ADJECTIVES USED AS VERBS:

Dull, clean , complete, fix, annihilate, narrow, dizzy, faint, astound, slow, fast, prompt etc are all ADJECTIVERBS.

More examples include:
BLIND: as a noun is means someone who cannot see. As a verb, it means to make sightless.

DIRTY: as a noun it means unclean and as a verb it means to make something unclean.

DRY: as a noun is means something without moisture and as a verb it means to remove moisture from something.
