One of the primary goals of English education in Japan is to develop communicative abilities which require the ability to use formulaic sequences. This study analyzed a corpus of English textbooks used in elementary and junior high schools in Japan to investigate the extent to which they employ target like lexical bundles, compared to SUBTLEXus, a spoken English corpus. The results showed that the textbooks used significantly more lexical bundles than spoken English, but only a few were common across multiple series of textbooks. The study also discovered that short bundles were commonly used in spoken English, while long bundles deviated from spoken English. These results suggest that textbooks may help students effectively use lexical bundles, but revisions can be made in selecting which bundles to include in the textbooks.
