About
Dovhe is a settlement in the Borzhava valley in Ukraine's Zakarpattia Oblast. It lies among the southern foothills of the Carpathians and serves as a local community centre.
Notes
English reference still describes a village, while Ukrainian reference says settlement since a status change in 2025; neutral settlement is used. Dolha and older Hosszúmező names are historical, and no recent renaming is asserted. Standard-derived forms are retrieval aids, not claims of English prose frequency. Independent French reference attestation is limited.
