Abstract
A system, method and computer-readable storage devices are disclosed for multi-modal interactions with a system via a long-touch gesture on a touch-sensitive display. A system operating per this disclosure can receive a multi-modal input comprising speech and a touch on a display, wherein the speech comprises a pronoun. When the touch on the display has a duration longer than a threshold duration, the system can identify an object within a threshold distance of the touch, associate the object with the pronoun in the speech, to yield an association, and perform an action based on the speech and the association.
