A race in the Elder Scrolls video game series.
In the Imperial tongue, the haughty, tall, golden-skinned people of Summerset Isle are called "High Elves," but call themselves Altmer, or the "Cultured People." In the Empire, "High" is often understood to mean "proud" or "snobbish," and as the Altmer generally personify these characteristics, the "lesser races" harbor little warmth for them. Altmer confidently consider themselves, with some justice, as the most civilized culture of Tamriel; the common tongue of the Empire, Tamrielic, is based on Altmer speech and writing, and most of the Empire's arts, crafts, and sciences are derived from Altmer traditions. However, the Altmer's smug self-assurance of superiority can be hard to bear. Deft, intelligent, and strong-willed, Altmer are the most strongly gifted in the arcane arts of all the races, and Altmer boast that their sublime physical natures make them far more resistant to disease than the "lesser races." However, they are also somewhat vulnerable to fire, frost, and shock.

An overly exuberant kick in the air that sometimes involves a hop up, and other times is done from a stationary position. The context is either a high kick out of joy/celebration/approval, or a high kick to show someone that you "mean business", that the situation is faccado, and/or they'd "better watch out." More popular in the Southern U.S., and especially popularized by women from the South who move to the frigid north and want to show their skills.
Verb: I'm going to high kick you, you a**hole!
Verb: That girl just high-kicked it all the way out of the bar.
Verb: Drinking whiskey makes me better at high kickin'.
Adjective: That jambalaya is high kickin'
Noun: That woman is queen of the high kick. It's her thing.
