The word "jamochas" is a variant spelling of "jemmy jocas," which means a smart aleck in Jamaican Creole. The IPA phonetic transcription for this word is /dʒɛmi ˈdʒokəz/. The "j" sounds like a "d" sound, the "e" is pronounced like the "e" in "set," and the "o" in "jocas" is pronounced like the "a" in "father." Thus, while the spelling may seem unusual to some, it accurately reflects the sounds of the word in Jamaican Creole.
