What is the part of speech of the word "desire" in this sentence? The lion
stared intently at the spectators from behind the glass, desire radiating
from his skin. *

Answer 1

I believe the answer is a noun.
Explanation: Verbs usually come after nouns (they describe them). In this situation, it said desire was radiating from the lion’s skin, so radiating is describing the lion’s desire.
