Tartine vs tranches du pain

I seem to recall in a recent exercise, probably one of this weekend's workout that tranche du (de) pain was the preferred answer for toast and that tartine was also given as a possibility. In this exercise, tartine was the only acceptable translation for a slice of toast. Is this an oversight?

Bonjour Frank,

Thank you for your feedback! "Tranches de pain" is now part of the possible answers. As Chris kindly explained, sometimes it does happen that not all the possible answers are included though.

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !

It's not a "correction" it's just a way to highlight differences between your answer and the preferred answer. Not all possible ways to phrase the sentence have been entered. In most cases that simply isn't possible. It's upon you to determine whether your answer is also acceptable or not. That's why those are called "self-grading" exercises. If in doubt, you post here. :)
