Syn :
High ;
lofty .
Usage : {
Tall }, {
High }, {
Lofty }.
High is the generic term ,
and is applied to anything which is elevated or raised above another thing .
Tall specifically describes that which has a small diameter in proportion to its height ;
hence ,
we speak of a tall man ,
a tall steeple ,
a tall mast ,
etc .,
but not of a tall hill .
Lofty has a special reference to the expanse above us ,
and denotes an imposing height ;
as ,
a lofty mountain ;
a lofty room .
Tall is now properly applied only to physical objects ;
high and lofty have a moral acceptation ;
as ,
high thought ,
purpose ,
etc .;
lofty aspirations ;
a lofty genius .
Lofty is the stronger word ,
and is usually coupled with the grand or admirable .
