Is it correct to say I sings in tongues?

No, it's not grammatically correct to say "I sings in tongues."

Here's why:

* Subject-verb agreement: The subject "I" is singular, so the verb should be "sing," not "sings."

* "In tongues" is a specific phrase referring to a religious practice, often associated with Pentecostalism, where people speak in an unknown language.

Here are some correct ways to say it:

* "I speak in tongues."

* "I sing in tongues." (This is acceptable if you are specifically referring to singing in the "unknown language" associated with the practice.)

* "I speak in an unknown language."

Choose the phrase that best fits the context you are using it in.
