The Seine (pronounced /sɛn/ in French) is a major river of north-western France, and one of its commercial waterways.
The ancient Gauls considered the Seine to be a tributary of the Yonne, which indeed presents a greater average discharge than the Seine (the river flowing through Paris should be called Yonne if the standard rules of geography were applied).
