Lexical bundles and moves are essential for vloggers to communicate clearly and purposefully within travel vlog discourse. It is crucial for L2 learners and practitioners aiming to enter the industry to master these bundles and understand the moves used in creating travel vlogs. This corpus-based study compiled a list of 239 four-word lexical bundles serving as fixed slots and their 98 variable slots from the Travel Vlog Corpus, which comprises 434,809 running words. These bundles were categorised by function: 79 as stance expressions, 75 as discourse organisers, 80 as referential expressions, and 5 as special conversational functions. The study also identified four move types and their 19 component steps necessary for creating travel vlogs. It emphasised that lexical bundles and moves are critical knowledge with important functions for generating travel vlog discourse. The study concluded by proposing pedagogical implications and discussing future research directions.
