Look at (listen) to the different sounds each word makes. For example, the letter s doesn’t always make the sss sound. It can sound like “z” or “iz” as well. And certain words with vowels at the beginning or end of a word will merge together with others to only make the sound only once. This is how you can sound fluent. There’s a lot of tools for teaching this but you can just say the sentences with the students and ask them what they hear. It’s pretty invaluable to notice these things as someone who speaks English as a second language.
A good listener is a good speaker. For speaking like a native speaker you must listen a native speaker at least 3 hours daily.

- What does "as above so below" mean?Sarrah
I met this phrase in the book and I was wondering about the meaning of "as above, so below." Here is the context where I met this phrase: In the meticulously designed garden, the arrangement of the flowers and paths reflected the harmony of the stars above, truly embodying the principle "as above, so below."
Best answer
It simply compares the harmony of the flowers to that of the stars... meaning same harmonous path the stars portray above (in the sky), it's same with the flowers below.
