9. One or more computer-storage media embodying computer-useable instructions that, when employed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform a method comprising: receiving a grammar usable by a search engine to route search queries to corresponding domains of information to find and return information for the search queries, the grammar comprising a plurality of rules, each rule comprising a sequence of token classes used to describe search queries, each token class comprising a logical grouping of tokens, each token comprising a string of one or more characters; parsing the grammar to identify the plurality of rules and token classes; eliminating, from the grammar, any duplicate rules identified from parsing the grammar; assigning a score to each rule indicative of an importance of each rule to the grammar, wherein the score for each rule is based at least in part on the frequency with which each rule corresponds with search queries contained in query logs; identifying one or more rules as important rules based on the one or more rules having a high score indicative of a high importance to the grammar; removing the one or more important rules from consideration for compression; identifying, from the token classes, two or more unimportant token classes that are eligible for compression and at least one important token class that is not eligible for compression; breaking at least one rule into a plurality of sub-rules based on important token classes, wherein each sub-rule includes a portion of the token classes from the at least one rule and each sub-rule begins and ends with an important token class and wherein a beginning token class and ending token class in each rule is treated as an important token class for purposes of breaking each rule into the plurality of sub-rules; identifying one or more sub-rules containing only important token classes; removing the one or more sub-rules containing only important token classes from consideration for compression; eliminating, from the grammar, any duplicate sub-rules identified; analyzing the plurality of sub-rules to identify at least one set of sub-rules as compression candidates; analyzing the unimportant token classes in the at least one set of sub-rules to identify two or more unimportant token classes for compression; merging the two or more unimportant token classes from the at least one set of sub-rules to generate a merged token class; substituting the merged token class in the grammar for the two or more unimportant token classes that were merged to generate the merged token class, wherein substituting the merged token class in the grammar for the two or more unimportant token classes that were merged to generate the merged token class comprises substituting the merged token class for all instances within the grammar of the two or more unimportant token classes that were merged to generate the merged token class; and eliminating any duplicate sub-rules and any duplicate rules after substituting the merged token classes in the grammar to generate a compressed grammar.

The one or more computer-storage media of claim 9 , wherein the method compresses multiple grammars to generate the compressed grammar, and wherein receiving a grammar comprises receiving the multiple grammars.
