Mar 11, 2013 · Senior Member. London. English - South-East England. Mar 11, 2013. #5. A pronunciation point. In the positive form, the /l/ is syllabic: the word has two syllables no-ble. When you add an ending, the /l/ is no longer a separate syllable, so the comparative is the two-syllabled no-bler, not three-syllabled no-bl-er. (For most people, anyway.)

You can help a noble cause (as in this thread), work for one, raise money for one, and many more things - but you cannot "do" one. What meaning did you want to express with this phrase?
Dec 11, 2013 · If you used "noble trees", I'd get the idea that the trees were unusually fine or valuable, but I'm not sure that I'd understand that they were very large and old. I'd probably use "ancient" to describe such trees. It would also make sense to use "very large, old trees": Ancient trees must be protected/Very large, old trees must be protected.
