Dear friends! Could you help me, please? What article is used with the names of the lakes? I have some grammar books but the rules are not the same... The Baikal or Baikal?
Thanks in advance.

Seas,oceans and rivers take the definite article The but it is not used before lakes.
The Aegean Sea, The Atlantic Ocean, The Nile but Lake Michigan.
