be,
“Phone.” The system may

name.” The direct command for this
task would be, “Call .”
If the phone number has been
saved as a name or place, the direct
command would be, “Call and place>.”
Directed Dialog
A directed dialog is an interaction
between a person speaking the
command and the system prompting
for specific information necessary to
complete the task. Many times the
system may repeat what the person
has stated as a command. This is
done as a confirmation to make
sure the command is understood.
