Xenoglossy
The ability to speak or write an unfamiliar language he or she could not have acquired by natural means.
The New Testament claims that xenoglossy took place at Pentecost. The Book of Acts calls this phenomenon "speaking in tongues", and other instances of it are mentioned in Acts 10:46; 19:6 and 1 Corinthians (12-14).
