/Sounds like "YAH" (as in "yard") + "bah" (as in "bar") + "LYOH"/
A Mexican expression meaning something is completely ruined, lost beyond repair, or there's nothing left to do. When something "ya valió," all you can do is accept defeat and move on.
“It's over, we missed the flight.”
“If you don't study, the exam's a lost cause.”

Hacer la pata
To cover for someone so they can sneak out or get away with something without being caught. In Argentina, "hacerle la pata" to a friend means backing up their story in front of others so they don't get in trouble.
