  Early New High German - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 A Brief History of the German Language
During the time of 1200-1350 the German people wrote mostly using their local dialects, starting with southern Germanic regions, gradually spreading throughout other Germanic settlements, although Latin documents were still in the majority.
Perhaps the most notable and clearly influential occurrence in the development of the German language was a result of the work of Martin Luther, as he is often referred to as "the creator of New High German" (Stedje 1989: 124).
In 1522 Martin Luther translated the New Testament from the original Hebrew into an "East Middle German" style (Waterman 1966: 129), which was followed by the translation of the Old Testament in 1523.

In German, there is a striking opposition between modern standard German, where the construction is virtually ungrammatical and considered to be "sub-standard" by most speakers, whilst, as this book shows, the construction is attested in all modern dialects as well as historic stages since 1350.
In answering why auxiliary tun is ungrammatical in modern standard German, it is shown that the stigmatization of tun was caused by prescriptive grammarians in the 16th–18th century.
