Ambiguous terminology

Some bodies of water that are called "seas" are not actually seas; there are also some seas
that are not called "seas". The following is an incomplete list of such potentially
confusing names.

• The Sea of Galilee is a small freshwater lake with a natural outlet, which is
properly called Lake Tiberias or Lake Kinneret on modern Israeli maps, but its
archaic name remains in use.
• The Sea of Cortés is more commonly known as the Gulf of California.
• The Persian Gulf is a sea.
• The Dead Sea is actually a lake, as is the Caspian Sea.
