1. A method of performing voice recognition, the method comprising:
- accessing a voice input including at least a first part and a second part;
performing voice recognition on the first part of the voice input;
performing voice recognition on a combination of the first part and the second part using a search space; and
limiting the search space based on a result from performing voice recognition on the first part of the voice input, wherein limiting the search space allows enhanced voice recognition of the combination compared to performing voice recognition on the unlimited search space.

Abstract
Performing voice recognition may include accessing a voice input including at least a first part and a second part, performing voice recognition on the first part of the voice input, performing voice recognition on a combination of the first part and the second part using a search space, and limiting the search space based on a result from performing voice recognition on the first part of the voice input. Communicating with a user may include presenting the user a first set of options and a second set of options, wherein the second set of options is limited based on the user'"'"'s selection from the first set of options. The two sets of options may be presented in a single page. The user'"'"'s selection from the first set of options may be used to select a vocabulary used to recognize the user'"'"'s response to the second set of options.
