Equilibrar conjugation
Table of Contents
Equilibrar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to balance”.
Below are all of the conjugations for equilibrar 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.

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

Equilibrar Presente / Present

| Tú | equilibras |
| Él / Ella / Usted | equilibra |

Equilibrar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido

| Él / Ella / Usted | equilibró | He / she / you balanced |

| Vos | equilibraste | You balanced |
Equilibrar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto

| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | equilibraba | I was balancing |
| Tú | equilibrabas | You were balancing |

Equilibrar 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 balanced” and “she has balanced”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he equilibrado | I have balanced |
| Tú | has equilibrado | You have balanced |
