Hi Ricardo. 
That works fine, chnless of course, you're like me and can't remember what 
types of phone numbers you have for people. Some I know, but those I don't call 
very often I can't remember the type of their phone number. Siri puts put the 
choices, and sometimes you can say the type after you have said the name. But I 
have not found that split tapping or tapping either always works to choose one. 
Sooner or later, I'm going to test and see what happens if I don't have 
VoiceOver in memory. I got a little surprise recently when I got to choose Yes 
or No on something I didn't think had a yes or no choice, so I'll see. 

Regards, 
Gigi
