Thank you Michael for answering so fast! Take care. Greetings from México.

It's similar to alto/grande in Spanish. High refers to altitude or elevation. Tall means there is much distance from bottom to top. Confusingly, "height" measures how tall you are! A person may be tall, but a cloud might be high. A building may be tall, in which case the top floors are high. Hope that helps!
