Yes. Please notice just that. It was in Acts. ch 2.
Where did it end? Where in the Bible is the last place it talks about tongues being actively used?
There are known tongues, unknown tongues, other tongues, and tongues. "unknown tongues" is just that. It is "unknown". How can a person decipher what a unknown tongue is? If they do, it just became known. hello?? The Bible says, it is UNknown. The unknown tongue is the Holy Spirit uttering. The know tongue is local language. other tongues is different language so all the people of different cultures could understand.
Good Question.

Speaking in Tongues is normally referred to Baptism of holy spirit or born again.
John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
3:8 The wind blows where it pleases and you hear the sound thereof, but you can not tell from where it comes, and where it goes so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
According to Christ there is no sign of being born again.
But he is talking to a religious teacher that means it has a very deeper meaning rather than a simple sign.
Remember the Babylon:
Genesis11:9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
Confusion of languages
Acts 2:7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
2:8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?
The language confusion was removed.
To spread the Gospel to the world in all languages.
Well it is a complicated study but this the simplest way I have right now to explain where as I can lecture it for hours.
Thank you.

Speaking in Tongues:
You have a room and there are 10 people in this room from 10 different countries of the world.
A teacher comes into the room and speaks to the 10 people.
Each person hears the teacher in his language from the town he was raised in, and marvels that the others in the room can understand the teacher!
This will happen again soon, this is one who is filled with the holy Spirit!

I believe the gift of tongues as spoken about in acts is the spontaneous ability to speak foreign languages. The men in that story were being give the mission of going out to preach to the world. It would have been a waste of time and more difficult if they had to learn the languages of the people they were seeing, or take an interpreter who may mis-quote. So God gave them the gift of being able to speak any language needed.
