Estregar conjugation
Table of Contents
Estregar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to rub, scrub, scour”.
Below are all of the conjugations for estregar 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.

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

Estregar Indicative Conjugations
The basic form of speech, el indicativo is used for making statements, talking about facts, events and things that are certain and objective.
Estregar Presente / Present
The present tense is as it sounds – it’s for talking about things that are currently going on, which are habitual, or which generally exist. In English, this would be “I rub” or “they rub”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | estriego |
| Tú | estriegas |
| Él / Ella / Usted | estriega |
| Nosotros / as | estregamos |

Estregar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I rubbed” or “she rubbed” 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | estregué | I rubbed |
| Tú | estregaste | You rubbed |
| Él / Ella / Usted | estregó | He / she / you rubbed |
| Nosotros / as | estregamos | We rubbed |
| Vosotros / as | estregasteis | You rubbed |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | estregaron | They / you rubbed |
| Vos | estregaste | You rubbed |
Estregar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was rubbing” or “she was rubbing” 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 | estregaba | I was rubbing |
| Tú | estregabas | You were rubbing |
| Él / Ella / Usted | estregaba | He was / she was / you were rubbing |
| Nosotros / as | estregábamos | We were rubbing |
| Vosotros / as | estregabais | You were rubbing |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | estregaban | They / you were rubbing |
| Vos | estregabas | You were rubbing |
Estregar 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 rubbed” and “she has rubbed”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he estregado | I have rubbed |
| Tú | has estregado | You have rubbed |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha estregado | He has / she has / you have rubbed |
| Nosotros / as | hemos estregado | We have rubbed |
| Vosotros / as | habéis estregado | You have rubbed |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | han estregado | They / you have rubbed |
| Vos | has estregado | You have rubbed |
Estregar Conditional / Condicional
The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would rub” or “she would rub”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | estregaría | I would rub |
| Tú | estregarías | You would rub |
| Él / Ella / Usted | estregaría | He / she / you would rub |
| Nosotros / as | estregaríamos | We would rub |
| Vosotros / as | estregaríais | You would rub |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | estregarían | They / you would rub |
| Vos | estregarías | You would rub |
Estregar Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will rub” or “they will rub”.
It is more commonly used for making a hypothesis about the present. To talk about the future, Spanish speakers frequently use “ir + a + infinivo”, e.g. “van a estregar” means “They are going to rub”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | estregaré | I will rub |
| Tú | estregarás | You will rub |
| Él / Ella / Usted | estregará | He / she / you will rub |
