- Synonyms and High, Tall, Lofty. High is the most general of these words, and has some uses different from those of the others. When we say that a cloud is high, we may mean that it extends very far upward, or, more probably, that it is unusually far above the earth. Tall describes that which is slim in proportion to its height, as a mast, a pine or other tree, a steeple, a person, possibly a cliff: tall houses may be found in some parts of the world; a tall cloud would be of small width and great comparative height. Tall is also associated with height to which we are used or which we have come to regard as standard. A giant is tall, because so much taller than most men. Lofty denotes an imposing height: a room cannot well be tall, but may be high, or even lofty: as, the lofty arches of Westminster Hall. High and lofty may have application to moral or intellectual character; tall has not, except colloquially. Tall seems somewhat figurative when applied to that which does not live and grow.
- Great in vertical dimension
- High in stature
- Having a particular height; measuring in stature (as specified): as, a man six feet tall.
