Is there linguistic term for a whole-word equivalent of a prefix For example in the term High Baroque is there a term for the function the word High is performing?

The word High in 'High Baroque', the term used to identify the Italian architectural period before the one called Late Baroque (1600's), is an adjective.* An adjective is a word that describes a noun. For example, in the sentence: "They have a big house", the word 'big' is an adjective, it describes the house. In this case it tells us what size the house (noun) is. * And the phrase: "The big yellow house", uses 'big' and 'yellow' as adjectives to describe the size and the color of the house. 'Baroque'(noun) is the name given to certain ornate artistic styles of the 17th and 18th centuries. e.g. Early Baroque, High Baroque, Late Baroque.In the context of the question, the whole term "High Baroque" is a noun. Even so, the word 'High' identifies which particular Baroque period is being referred to, and is therefore performing an adjectival function.When not used as a noun, the word 'baroque' itself is used as an adjective to describe a particular ornate style. e.g. "The baroque (adj) style (n.) is very ornate and elaborate."In this case the word 'baroque' is performing an adjectival function, describing which 'style' (n.) is being referred to.'High' in 'High Baroque' is also called a 'modifier', because* Adjectives modify nouns (and pronouns), and* Adverbs modify verbs.
