/Sounds like "ah" (as in "art") + "RREE" + "bah" (as in "bar") + "DEHL" (as in "debt") + "kah" (as in "car") + "BAH" (as in "bar") + "yoh" (as in "yoke")/
Acting arrogant and full of yourself, usually after achieving something. In Mexico, "andar arriba del caballo" describes someone who just got a promotion, a win, or some good news and now acts like they are above everyone else. The horse metaphor captures the feeling of looking down on people from above.
“Ever since he got promoted he's been acting like he's above everyone.”
“Don't get a big head, you're still the same person you've always been.”

Mamadera de gallo
Relentless teasing or messing around that has gone on way too long and stopped being funny. In Colombia, mamadera de gallo is when the joke ran out of steam but someone keeps pushing it, and now everyone just wants a straight answer or some peace.
