Interlingue

Interlingue (; ISO 639 ie, ile), originally Occidental (), is an international auxiliary language created in 1922 and renamed in 1949. Its creator, Edgar de Wahl, sought to achieve maximal grammatical regularity and natural character. The vocabulary is based on pre-existing words from various languages and a derivational system which uses recognized prefixes and suffixes.

The Interlingue-Union is an organisation whose goal is to popularise Interlingue, an international auxiliary language. It has existed since 1929 and is currently based in Switzerland. It is totally neutral on political and religious matters. Until 1949, the organisation was called the Occidental-Union (because the language itself was known as Occidental until that year). The Interlingue-Union publishes a magazine called Cosmoglotta.
