abstract = "Precision computational grammars encode detailed linguistic analyses and compositional semantics that support rigorous investigation of grammatical phenomena, but their development requires substantial expertise and maintenance. To ensure long-term sustainability and accessibility of these resources, we present the DELPH-IN Grammary, a curated collection of twenty three HPSG grammars spanning seventeen languages and eight language families. The repository includes mature broad-coverage grammars (English, German, Japanese, Norwegian, Spanish) with associated treebanks, as well as grammars for typologically diverse and less-resourced languages. Each grammar is standardized with metadata, compiled using the ACE parser/generator, and loaded into the Linguistic Type Database for detailed inspection. Following FAIR principles, all resources are version-controlled and archived on Zenodo with annual releases synchronized to community development cycles. The Grammary enables reproducible grammar research, cross-linguistic typological studies, semantic parsing development, and grammar engineering pedagogy, providing the depth and theoretical grounding that complements data-driven approaches in computational linguistics. Our goal is to establish a sustainable model for preserving these valuable resources which bridge the critical gap between theoretical linguistics and empirical corpus based research. The Grammary is available at https://github.com/delph-in/grammary (Zenodo doi: zenodo.18945956)."
