A loch is what lakes are referred to in Scotland. Almost every lake in Scotland will be called a "Loch" and the naming is occasionally found outside of Scotland. "Sea Lochs" are similar to lakes except that they are connected to the sea, and contain seawater.

The "ch" in loch has a very distinct pronunciation and often the word is said incorrectly by those who are not used to Scottish dialect. The "ch" is said "through the nose" as opposed to how it would normally be pronounced vocally.
