'''Speaking in tongues''', or '''glossolalia''', is a gift described and explained in Acts 2:1-47 with respect to early Christians. It has reappeared in many revivalistic Christian churches in the 19th and 20th centuries, especially in the [[Charismatic Movement]]
In this phenomenon, a person is able to speak in a language that he normally does not know.
In today's Christianity, it is common in the [[Charismatic movement]]
