What is the difference between high and tall? We use "high" for things that are up in the air or far above the ground. Here are a couple of examples:

The plane is flying very high.
This room has really high ceilings. That's why it's a little echo-y.
The light switch is too high. My son cannot reach it.

We don't use "high" for people.

My friend is really tall. He's a basketball player.

We use "tall" to talk about things that are high and thin in shape, such as buildings or trees. For example,

I work in that really tall white building.
There are some really tall trees down by the river.

So there you go. The difference between "high" and "tall". I hope that helps. Thanks for watching. See you next time.
