You can write an interpreter in anything, or you can use a parser generator. Designing a good language is the hard part. Most imperative languages will have variables and functions at the very least, so start with that. Where to go from there is up to you.

You can use any language you want, Python, C++, Java or BASIC. With BASIC you will get a good performance of the language, but it's a pain in the ass to use it.

First learn how to code and then think to make you own programming language.
