Thanks

Well, depend on the context you want to say that. Nevertheless, it can be translated as "maybe" or "perhaps".. I mean, you can use it when you wanna express a different choice.... Let me give you an example:

A lo mejor, esta esta es una mejor opcion
Perhaps/Maybe, this solution is a better one....

It would be very helpful if you give us a context where you wanna say that expression...

And what do these sayings mean? I know the meaning of most of the words but cannot really put them together.

Para torear y casarse hay que arrimarse.

Tyuo o ajeno que not te falte dinero.

Administrador que administra y enfermo que enjuaga algo traga.

Al que nunca bebe vino no le fies ni un comino.

Thank you :-)
