According to the author´s knowledge, Ľudovít Štúr had been preparing for his codification step comprehensively and for a long time. Štúr had explained his reasons for establishing the standard Slovak language on the basis of the dialect spoken in central Slovakia in his work Nárečja slovenskuo alebo potreba písaňja v tomto nárečí (1846). By the establishment of the nationwide standard language he had pursued also a significant social goal – to overcome the then linguistic division of the Slovak nation conditioned by the different religious affiliation of the adherents of then used literary languages; achieving this goal had been considered by him in the above mentioned work necessary. In Štúr´s codification also his deep humanistic conviction has been manifested in which he had surpassed his political competitors as well as foreign political and spiritual leaders. With his efforts Ľudovít Štúr had stood not only at the beginning of ecumenical cooperation of the Slovaks but he had significantly shaped it as well and so he had clearly influenced the activities of the Slovak nation-wide cultural association Tatrín and also Matica slovenská as its immediate successor.
