Abstract
In this paper, we report on an exploratory study into the recurrence of formulaic sequences in unabridged versions of myths and legends from different parts of the world in English. We describe the steps taken to build up a small corpus of FSs typical of these narrative text types. Those sequences which are both frequent and pedagogically relevant for ESL primary school students will be subsequently selected and used to design teaching material for this group of young learners.
