/Sounds like "AH" (as in "art") + "LOHS" (as in "loan") + "TOOM" (as in "tool") + "bohs" (as in "boat")/
Stumbling forward despite constant setbacks, struggling but refusing to quit. In Argentina and Uruguay, going "a los tumbos" means things are not going smoothly but you are still making progress, one bumpy step at a time.
“The project keeps lurching forward but we haven't given up on it.”
“We made it to the finish line stumbling the whole way, but we made it.”

Nopales en la frente
A colorful Mexican expression for someone who claims to have left their humble origins behind but fails to hide them. Like having nopal cactus on your forehead, everyone can see exactly where you really come from.
