灾难 is pronounced zāinàn and means “bencana”. You will meet it in HSK 6, a band of the Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi — the standard test of Chinese proficiency. Most learners can pick 灾难 out of a list long before they can reach for it unprompted, and the gap between those two closes only with repeated recall.
