This paper investigates how adverbs in elementary Japanese textbooks are currently introduced from the following perspectives; i）what types of adverbs are introduced and ii）how the adverbs are treated when they are introduced. In comparison with the results of a previous study by Ozeki 1993, this paper shows that the adverbs introduced in current elementary Japanese textbooks have the following features. Firstly, I classified all the adverbs in the textbooks into three types: modal adverbs, adverbs of degree and adverbs of manner, and discovered that there are certain tendencies, as shown below. i. The adverbs of manner commonly introduced have increased. ii. taihen used to be the most popular adverb of degree, but now this tendency has changed and we see, sukoshi, chotto and totemo have occupied this position in current elementary textbooks. iii. Modal adverbs that are likely to be introduced in elementary Japanese textbooks are those associated with particular predicates such as amari/zenzen/nakanaka/sonnani ~nai, tabun ~daroo, moshi ~tara and zehi ~tai.Secondly, I pointed out the following features regarding the forms of the adverbs. i. Adverbs like sorosoro are often introduced with co-occurring phrases which are used with the adverb. (e.g. sorosoro shitsureishimasu) ii. Some adverbs that were derived from adjectives like sugoku tend not to be treated as adverbs in many textbooks. iii. The adverbs derived from nouns and particles like saigoni, sakini and minnade are treated differently among textbooks. iv. The treatment of colloquial adverbs like anmari and tottemo diverges among textbooks
