'Tongues' are considered a universal language in a spiritual world. It's not considered a requirement.....but a gift. IF you believe the Holy Spirit lives within you, depending on your particular faith, when you don't know what to say....you can ask the Holy Spirit to give you the words needed. This is particulary useful if someone spends a great deal of time praying for others.
That is the basic teaching on it. Whether someone believes it or not....is their own choice.
