A system capable of performing natural language understanding (NLU) on utterances including complex command structures such as sequential commands (e.g., multiple commands in a single utterance), conditional commands (e.g., commands that are only executed if a condition is satisfied), and/or repetitive commands (e.g., commands that are executed until a condition is satisfied). Audio data may be processed using automatic speech recognition (ASR) techniques to obtain text. The text may then be processed using machine learning models that are trained to parse text of incoming utterances. The models may identify complex utterance structures and may identify what command portions of an utterance go with what conditional statements. Machine learning models may also identify what data is needed to determine when the conditionals are true so the system may cause the commands to be executed (and stopped) at the appropriate times.
