For the most part Christians. It's spoken of in The Bible early in the book of Acts following the reception of the holy spirit to believers after the final accession of Christ. I Corinthians 12 and 14 also mention "speaking in tongues" as one of the manifestations available by a Christian believers holy spirit. This is considered perfect prayer that bypasses an individuals understanding and is to be done in private unless interpreted in a worship meeting. Despite the many religions and sects who speak in tongues many fail to actually live up to the concluding exhortation concerning the proper operations of this manifestation in the church. I Corinthians 14:40 "Let all things (context emphasizes speaking in tongues) be done decently and in order" -not acting crazy and being emotionally out of bounds.
Many Christians in Pentecostal-type denominations speak in tongues. Though some choose not to.

How do you explain Acts 2 4 the infilling of the Holy Ghost and speaking in other tongues?

If a righteous person has a desire to speak to someone who speaks a different language, the Holy Ghost will bless the speaker with the gift to be able to speak the other persons language. This is called The Gift of Tongues. There is another gift called The Interpretation of Tongues. This is when a person speaks in their own language but the hearer hears the words in his own language.


What is the diversity of tongues given by the Holy Ghost?

In the book of Acts and some of the epistles, the writers of the Bible describe a miraculous speaking in foreign languages, or "speaking in tongues." In the book of Acts, those so enabled by the Holy Spirit fluently spoke languages they had never learned or studied, in order to preach about Jesus to people who spoke another language, to praise God, or to prophesy. In his first letter to the Corinthians, the apostle Paul says "if I speak in the languages of men and of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal." Because of this, some Christians believe that the gift of tongues also enables people to speak the languages of angels, whereas other Christians believe that Paul is using hyperbole, and that the gift of tongues only applied to human languages.
