损失 is pronounced sǔnshī and means “mất mát; tổn thất”. HSK 5 places it in the Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi, the standardised measure of Chinese proficiency. There is a real difference between having seen 损失 and being able to use it, and cramming a list flatters the first while doing little for the second.
