In Spanish, it is spelled "carin~o" (where the N is designated with the symbol on top of the N, to distinguish and identify it as a "Spanish 'N' " and is pronounced "enye". Therefore, in Spanish "carin~o" is pronounced - "carin-yo". "Carinho" is the Portuguese spelling. In both languages, the word is a "term of endearment" - carin~o or carinho means "loved on" (like the other more popular term "amor" (simply, "love")
