/Sounds like "AHL" (as in "art") + "dee" (as in "deep") + "BEE" (as in "bee") + "noh" (as in "note") + "boh" (as in "boat") + "TOHN" (as in "toll")/
In vain, pointlessly, with no result whatsoever. A Rioplatense expression that underscores that an effort or action accomplished absolutely nothing, similar to "for nothing" or "all for nothing."
“I woke up early for nothing, the meeting was in the afternoon.”
“He studied all night for nothing because they cancelled the exam.”

Pasota
A completely apathetic person who doesn't care about anything and never commits to anything. The Spanish 'pasota' is the philosophical opposite of engaged, politics, responsibilities, relationships, none of it generates any reaction. Pure indifference as a lifestyle.
