Illusion
Phantom, Apparition
noun
The kanji and the word are exactly the same. That means they share meanings as well. You can add phantom to the meanings as well, because phantoms are kind of like illusions.
Since this word is made up of a single kanji, it should use the kun'yomi reading. When learning the kanji, you didn't learn that reading, so here's a mnemonic to help you with this word: You look up to see a crazy illusion. You can't believe it's real. Master Roshi, from Dragonball, is standing in front of you (you thought he was a cartoon!). Then, he splits into a million versions of himself, creating a mob of Roshis (まぼろし). This mob goes on to train many people to fight.
