speaking in tongues

typing (or texting) gibberish. Comes from typing in frustration, hitting the keyboard, or accidentally leaning on it. A posting or sent mail or text shows up indecipherable.
Looks like Megan is speaking in tongues again. I checked her last facebook post. 3am, nothing but garbage. Must have fallen asleep on the keyboard. Drunk. Again.

Tongues

(1) Correctly: TONGUES = SPOKEN LANGUAGES, ie, sounds made by the mouth TO CONVEY AN INTELLIGIBLE MESSAGE.

(2) Incorrectly: TONGUES = SPOKEN GIBBERISH, ie, sounds made by the mouth WHICH CANNOT BE UNDERSTOOD BY ANYONE.
(1) The missionaries quickly learned the native tongues of the indiginous peoples and preached the gospel to them.

(2) Molly babbled some gibberish during the service, and explained that I couldn't understand it because it was the "tongues of angels". I said that the Greek and Hebrew phrases for "tongues of angels" mean "languages of messengers" and that the words for "language" and "messenger" (both indicate coveying a MESSAGE) can only support the saying as being meant to be UNDERSTOOD.

corporate tongues

The regurgitation of corporate jargon and buzz words in order to fit in with you corporate peers.
When I asked Julie a question on our zoom meeting, she asked me if “ we could take this off line and circle back when she could wrap her head around this.” She then told me “she would be out of pocket and in the meantime if I could email her a high lever, view from 50,000 feet, so when she comes back into the office she can be laser focused on the issue.” I have no idea what she was talking about because she was speaking in corporate tongues.

Speaking in tongues

The spiritual equivalent of mathematical problem solving. How to pray when you don’t know what to pray.
Just as problem solving is about what to do when you don’t know what to do, speaking in tongues is allowing the Holy Spirit (the third Person in the Trinity) to pray to God on your behalf in a supernatural language that you yourself don’t understand.
