Please check the meaning of this expression ."to be for sb/sth"on longman dictionary.

Answer 2

Spanish here refers to a Spanish person or Spanish people,I guess.

But I'm sure that the expression "to be for sb /sth" is different from what our friend said!

معنی ش میشه این اگه به خاطر مرد / زن (یا مردم) اسپانیایی نبود ،من تو درد سر می افتادم.

I think you mean this: "if not for"

Agree. Good choice.

Webster:

if not for
  : in the absence of (something or someone) :without
   If not for modern medicine, fewer babies would survive.
   If not for him, I wouldn't be where I am today.
   — often used in the phrases if it were not for and if it had not been for
   If it were not for your donations, many more children would go hungry.
   If it hadn't been for him, I wouldn't be where I am today.
