Abstract

A search is performed based on a voice input combined with user selection of entities displayed on a display screen as well as real-world entities. A voice input is received from the user by a media device, as well as a selection of a first entity being displayed on the media device. A conjunction spoken in the voice input triggers the media device to wait for selection of a second entity before performing the search. After receiving selection of the second entity, a search query is constructed based on the voice input, the first entity, and the second entity. The search query is transmitted to a database and, in response, the media device receives at least one identifier of a least one content item. The at least one identifier is then generated for display to the user.
