| Abstract | The use of formulaic sequences in English as aForeign Language (EFL) lessons plays an integral role inlanguage teaching and learning, but it seems still widelyneglected in the Thai school context. To call attention tothis issue, this study aims at identifying formulaicsequences used in a Thai primary school. The data weretaken from three native English teachers in their younglearners' EFL lessons, and were analysed with the use ofcorpus software to identify the formulaic sequences usedaccording to their functions within the various situationsin the lessons.The findings reveal that multiple formulaicsequences were used throughout the lessons for variousreasons but always in a specific context during thecourse of the lessons. This study has created apotentially useful list of formulaic sequences, includingtheir functions and situations they could be used in. Wehope that this list could benefit non-native English EFLteachers who teach young learners in their own lessons. |
