The article examines the development of the German language during the Middle High German period, specifically focusing on the influence of the preacher Meister Eckhart on the evolution of German philosophical language. As a preacher, Meister Eckhart was the author of works in which he expressed his thoughts and enriched the German language with neologisms in the field of theology. He developed the imagery of the German language and coined his own terminology to promote his philosophical ideas. Eckhart's neologisms are classified into three types (root-based formations; neologisms derived through suffixation and/or prefixation; and neologisms resulting from semantic reinterpretation). To some extent, this author laid the foundations of German philosophical language, introducing metaphors, reinterpretations, and re-evaluations of meanings. The study of this lexical layer provides a deeper understanding of the historical development of the German language and demonstrates the influence of theology on the German language during that period.
