From Spanish aquel, Italian quello, Portuguese aquele, Occitan aquel, Catalan aquell, Romanian acel. From Vulgar Latin *eccum ille, a compound of Classical Latin eccum and ille.

aquelle

Usage notes

Due to the non-typical etymological source languages (Catalan/Occitan and Romanian), it is debatable whether this word is part of Interlingua. Alexander Gode proposed the word ille, which is the same as the third-person singular masculine pronoun.
