Interlingue is a constructed language. It was called Occidental between 1922 and 1947. It was created by Edgar von Wahl, one of the first Esperantists. Von Wahl was from the Russian Empire. He spoke German. He had natural ability in languages. He later changed his surname to de Wahl.
De Wahl was not happy with Esperanto. He decided to create a language called "Occidental". He published it in 1922. In 1947 he changed the name of the language to Interlingue.
