1Co 14:6 Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you,

1Co 14:8 For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?
1Co 14:9 So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye shall speak into the air.
1Co 14:11 Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me.

"thelo de pantas humas lalein glossais"
transliterated Greek above is:
1 cor 14:5a "I would that ye all spake with tongues "

but the basic breakdown is
"The British are worried about speaking only English. At the start of a new academic year this week primary schools began to teach mandatory language extras for the first time"
etc.
ends with the idea
"Young people entering the labour market sans skills employers need
lose opportunities in the job place and the world."

seems like Spanish should be growing faster than Arabic in the U.S.

btw
I always quote 14:8 in reference to praying LOUD enough for people to hear in a public setting.

Los ingleses están preocupados por sólo hablar inglés. En el comienzo de un nuevo año lectivo esta semana las escuelas primarias empezaron a impartir de forma obligatoria la enseñanza de idiomas extranjeros por primera vez. Y los empresarios se quejan de que no encuentran empleados lo suficientemente preparados en otras lenguas. ¿Cuáles son los idiomas que más valoran y necesitan aprender?
