Speaking in tongues : ウィキペディア英語版 | Glossolalia
Glossolalia or (speaking in tongues) is the fluid vocalizing of speech-like syllables that lack any readily comprehended meaning, in some cases as part of religious practice.〔"Glossolalia n." ''A Dictionary of Psychology''. Edited by Andrew M. Colman. Oxford University Press 2009. (Oxford Reference Online ). Retrieved 5 August 2011.〕 Some consider it as a part of a sacred language. It is a common practice amongst Pentecostal and Charismatic Christianity. Glossolalia (and especially the idiom "speaking in tongues") also sometimes refers to xenoglossy, the putative speaking of a natural language previously unknown to the speaker. ==Etymology== "Glossolalia" is constructed from the Greek word γλωσσολαλία, itself a compound of the words γλῶσσα (''glossa''), meaning "tongue" or "language"〔(γλῶσσα ), Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, ''A Greek-English Lexicon'', on Perseus〕 and λαλέω (''laleō''), "to speak, talk, chat, prattle, or to make a sound".〔(λαλέω ), Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, ''A Greek-English Lexicon'', on Perseus〕 The Greek expression (in various forms) appears in the New Testament in the books of Acts and First Corinthians. The exact phrase "speaking in tongues" has been used at least since the translation of the New Testament into Middle English in the Wycliffe Bible in the 14th century.〔 in Wycliffe's Bible〕 Frederic William Farrar first used the word "glossolalia" in 1879.〔Oxford English Dictionary, 2nd ed, 1989〕
