Through a unified search and exploration environment, users can query, inspect, and compare more than 7,000 distributionally free verbal constructions and over 2,700 verbal idioms (frozen constructions), grounded in long-standing Lexicon{--}Grammar descriptions. For each construction, the interface exposes core linguistic properties such as argument structure, distributional constraints, semantic roles, major syntactic transformations, and curated usage examples with English translations. The demo illustrates how detailed, manually validated grammatical knowledge can be explored dynamically via the web, supporting linguistic research, language teaching, and NLP development. To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest publicly accessible, web-based grammatical resource dedicated to European Portuguese verbal constructions."
