Answer:
Gulf” comes from the Greek word “kolpos” while peninsula comes from the Latin words “paene” and “insula.” ... Gulfs are areas of water that are surrounded by land on three sides while peninsulas are long strips of land that poke out into the sea surrounded on two or three sides by water.
That is, while a strait lies between two land masses and connects two larger bodies of water, an isthmus lies between two bodies of water and connects two larger land masses.
