I have actually wondered about this myself. I think that it was meant purely as an exclamation, and not with the same meaning as the Spanish (obviously...). It is probably pronounced as it is written, rather than having a silent "h". So I suppose the similarity was unintentional, although doubtless Tolkien knew the Spanish meaning. Hmmm.....
