"Higher" can be either an adjective or an adverb, because it can modify both nouns and verbs. Examples:: (modifying a noun) In the Sixteenth Century in most of Europe, being a clergyman was considered a higher calling than being a merchant. (modifying a verb) As I held the thermometer in my hand, the Mercury column in the thermometer moved higher.
