Early New High German (ENHG) is a term for the period in the history of the German language generally defined following Wilhelm Scherer as the period 1350 to 1650. Alternative periodisations take the period to begin later e.g. at the invention of printing with moveable type in the 1450s.The term is the standard translation of the German Frühneuhochdeutsch (Fnhd.) introduced by Scherer.
