Etymology
Inherited from Middle French hault, from Old French haut, halt (“high, tall, elevated”), a conflation of Frankish *hauh, *hōh (“high, tall, elevated”) and Latin altus (“high, raised, profound”). Akin to Old High German hōh (“high, tall, elevated”). More at high, haughty. See: Latin Adjectives '
altus'.
