/Sounds like "AH" (as in "art") + "BWEH" + "nahs" (as in "nacho") + "OH" (as in "oh") + "rahs" (as in "rapper")/
An ironic Spanish expression for something that arrived way too late to be of any use. Used when help, news, or action finally shows up long after it could have made a real difference. The full phrase is often "a buenas horas mangas verdes," referring to the green-sleeved officers who always showed up after the trouble was already over.
“Thanks for letting me know now, I already finished the project on my own.”
“A little late for that, the train has already left and there is nothing anyone can do.”
