Taugenichts

Etymology
From, alteration of older (1548), itself perhaps after  (1514); compare 🇨🇬 (1539). The two earliest High German attestations are apparently in authors from the Low German borderland: 1548 in Burkard Waldis from (who also lived in Low German Riga), and 1563 in  from the area of Mansfeld-Südharz. Sometimes considered an eventual loan translation of, which seems to be later, however (1558 ?). Generally, the chronological evidence must be valued with caution in an informal word such as this.
