Joos Lambrecht (1491, Ghent – 1556/7, Wesel) was a Walloon printer, typographer, lexicographer and linguist.
He was the son of Jan Lambrecht and came from a family of engravers of seals and marks used to authenticate cloth made in Ghent.
In 1537-1538 he took up this trade taking over from Vincent Lambert, and combined it with a broad range of activities: he was a schoolmaster at the Walloon School and also wrote poetry.
[1] His Naembouck van alle natuerlicken ende ongheschuumde Vlaemsche woorden is an important book in the history of the Dutch languages.
It was a Dutch-French dictionary, French being a language he taught at the Walloon School.
