k_h means aspirated k. The same is true for t_h and p_h. the underscore + h means aspiration. /J/ means the sound spelled ñ in Spanish or gn in Italian. /s\/ was not a typo. the \ after the s means the sound written with the curly-c in IPA. I'm not sure it is exactly the correct symbol for how I pronounce the Ss in Carrajina. The sound is like an s, but with the tongue farther back on the alveolar ridge and significantly less groved than my tongue is for my native English s.
