## About

Yizhivtsi is a village in the Bukovina part of Chernivtsi Oblast. It belongs to the Chudei rural community and has a strong Romanian-speaking local tradition.

## Notes

Yizhivtsi is the Romanian-speaking Bukovina village in Chudei hromada. Romanian Igești is a concurrent community name as well as a historical name, not necessarily a recent renaming. Standard-derived romanizations are retrieval aids, not claims of English or French prose frequency. Independent French locality-reference attestation is limited.
