Usage Note

Distribuido is the past participle of distribuir used adjectivally, meaning spread out or allocated among several points or people. In tech and business contexts it appears in compounds: sistema distribuido ('distributed system'), trabajo distribuido ('distributed work'). Note that it carries no written accent — ui counts as a diphthong here, so the spelling distribuído is a common error to avoid.

Examples

"El trabajo está bien distribuido entre el equipo."

Natural Translation

The work is well distributed among the team.
