"They went for a walk"
Walk is a noun when it's an event. There's a lot of nouns derived from verbs that way, and vice versa.

Yes, dear.
Thanks for the breaking news about the interchangeability of verbs and nouns in English. However is ‘eat’ a noun? It’s creeping into the vernacular in the plural as a mass noun, but in the singular?

What a lot of bollocks you talk.
Most vernacular remains just that. For example, 'bollocks'.

Sorry, being too subtle.
"Pretty" and "Nice" are words that have radically changed meaning over the centuries. Kind of as if "Wicked" had come to exclusively mean "good".
