权威 is pronounced quánwēi and means “อำนาจ, ผู้มีอำนาจ”. HSK 6 places it in the Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi, the standardised measure of Chinese proficiency. There is a real difference between having seen 权威 and being able to use it, and cramming a list flatters the first while doing little for the second.
