As of today, Jun 26, 2018, the Google Home Continued Conversation is available only in the US with English language only. The support to other languages and counties will eventually roll out. Now you can try a couple of commands,
"Hey Google, How is weather tomorrow? Is there any appointment for tomorrow?"
"Hey Google, Set the thermostat to 72 degrees. And Dim the lights in the kitchen"
Google Assistant will wait (maximum 8 seconds) for the next command after executing every command that you ask. You can see the LED lights on top of your Google Home device are spinning/bouncing. This is indicating that the Google Home is listening to you.

The continued conversation is not supported while on call (set Google Voice Number for Google Home Calls) or playing media on Google Home.
