bring under central control
to put control in one main place
Használati minta:
centralize [something] (under/in/within [authority/department])
Gyakori hiba:
Learners may confuse centralize (make control more concentrated) with concentrate (bring together physically or mentally). Also, centralize is usually not followed by 'to' (say 'centralize in/under', not 'centralize to').
