What does the Bible say? Let's find out.

Speaking in tongues is speaking in another tongue. You can be a Russian and speak fluently in Spanish. Speaking in tongues is recorded in the Bible where the apostles who speaks another tongue spoke and the listeners heard and understood it perfectly in surprise. The apostles were from Galilee but spoke in another language which they know not.
Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. 2:5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. 2:6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language. 2:7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans? 2:8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? 2:9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, 2:10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, 2:11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.
The apostles where speaking in he language they knew but the listeners were understanding it in their native language.
Nowadays, churches speak in languages that can not be understood by anyone, including themselves. This is based on their emotional expressions.
According to the Bible, speaking in tongues is a way of translation to enable better understanding when teaching the gospel of Christ.
