Tigerlily's correct, it's "zho-ah-kee". I mostly hear it pronounced zho-AH-kee, with a slight "n" sound at the end, but that's hard to get (or even hear for a lot of people) unless you're familiar with the Portuguese language.
It is not to be confused with the Spanish JOAQUÍN, pronounced "wah-KEEN", like Joaquin Phoenix.
