Object vs Class vs Function

Question

I was wondering - what\'s the difference between JavaScript objects, classes and functions? Am I right in thinking that classes and functions are types of objects?

Update 2015

There are classes in javascript they just aren't used on older browsers.

It has constructors, extentions, and the like.

class Cat { 
  constructor(name) {
    this.name = name;
  }
  
  speak() {
    console.log(this.name + ' makes a noise.');
  }
}

class Lion extends Cat {
  speak() {
    super.speak();
    console.log(this.name + ' roars.');
  }
}
