The '''Shkumbin''' ([[Albanian language|Albanian]] indefinite form, the definite form is '''Shkumbini''', occasionally spelled Skumbi in English) is a [[river]] in central [[Albania]], flowing into the [[Adriatic Sea]]. It is considered the dividing line for two dialects of the [[Albanian language]]: [[Tosk language|Tosk]] (to the south) and [[Gheg]] (to the north). [[Elbasan]] is a large city on this river.
In ancient times, the river was known as ''Genusus''.
