Centralizar conjugation
Table of Contents
Centralizar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to centralize”.
Below are all of the conjugations for centralizar in Spanish, in all three moods (indicative/indicativo, subjunctive/subjunctivo and imperative/imperativo) and all of the tenses, for each pronoun.
The vosotros pronoun is mainly used in mainland Spain, and is the informal second-person plural – it could be considered the Spanish version of “y’all”. It is rarely found in Latin America, where ustedes is used instead.
The vos form is used instead of tú in some Spanish speaking countries of South America, especially the Southern Cone (e.g. Argentina and Uruguay) and has a different conjugation.

Centralizar Gerund and Past Participle
The gerund (gerundio) is used with the continuous tenses, e.g. present continuous (está centralizando) and past continuous (estaba centralizando). The easiest way to think of it is the equivalent of english’s -ing form (e.g. centralizing).
The past participle (participio) is used with perfect tense ‘haber’ verbs, e.g. he centralizado and hubiera centralizado. These are the equivalent of English’s ‘have’ (e.g. have centralized).

Centralizar Presente / Present

| Tú | centralizas |
| Él / Ella / Usted | centraliza |
| Nosotros / as | centralizamos |

Centralizar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I centralized” or “she centralized” in English.
In Spanish, there are two past tenses where just one is used in English; the pretérite infefinido is typically used to refer to a concrete, specific moment in time.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |

| Tú | centralizaste | You centralized |
| Él / Ella / Usted | centralizó | He / she / you centralized |

| Vos | centralizaste | You centralized |
Centralizar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was centralizing” or “she was centralizing” in English, and is typically used to describe things and set a scene, talk about events without a specific timeframe, or talk about habitual events or states in the past.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | centralizaba | I was centralizing |
| Tú | centralizabas | You were centralizing |

Centralizar Perfect / Perfecto
The perfect tense is for talking about things which happened in the past but are still related to the present or continue into the present.
In English, these use the auxiliary verbs ‘have’ and ‘has’ – i.e. “I have centralized” and “she has centralized”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he centralizado | I have centralized |
| Tú | has centralizado | You have centralized |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha centralizado | He has / she has / you have centralized |

| Yo | centralizaría | I would centralize |
