Question: What do we call the food seen in the picture? Is it bread, loaf, or dough?

Answer: none of those.

Those are flatbreads, a generic term. There are many kinds of flatbreads around the world.

  • dough is for uncooked flour of any kind, mixed with water or other ingredients to make breads, cakes or other baked edibles.
  • a loaf of bread is a very specific thing.

This is a loaf of bread.

[please note: they are many answers with correct information, but I tried to answer it as simply as possible. The picture does the trick. It shows a loaf of bread that has been sliced. Also, note that we say one loaf of bread, two loaves of bread.]
