贼 is pronounced zéi and means “ladrón”. HSK 6 places it in the Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi, the standardised measure of Chinese proficiency. There is a real difference between having seen 贼 and being able to use it, and cramming a list flatters the first while doing little for the second. LexiTrail shows you the word again at the point your recall of it is about to lapse.
