Early New High German (ENHG) is a term for the period in the history of the German language generally defined, following Wilhelm Scherer,[1] as the period 1350 to 1650.[2]
The term is the standard translation of the German Frühneuhochdeutsch (Frnhd., Fnhd.), introduced by Scherer. The term Early Modern High German is also occasionally used for this period (but the abbreviation EMHG is generally used for Early Middle High German).
^Scherer 1878, p. 13.
^Wells 1987, p. 23. "1350–1650... seems the most widely accepted dating."
