highness
Quality of towering
Highness refers to the state of being high—in elevation, degree, or intensity: the highness of the cliff, the highness of her standards.
The word appears most often as a royal title of address, preceded by a possessive: Your Highness, His Royal Highness.
Used sarcastically, it mocks someone acting superior: Whatever you say, Your Highness.
