Anniversary
Memorial Day
noun
You should write down all your thoughts on this day, because it's not just any day — it's an anniversary!
Wondering how 記念日 differs from 周年? 周年 is usually for a numbered anniversary, like 十周年 (10th anniversary), whereas 記念日 refers to the specific date on which a memorable event took place in the past.
The reading is a combination of on'yomi for the first two and kun'yomi for the last one. That being said, all of the readings for all of the kanji are the readings you've learned already, so you should be able to read this word too. Just watch out because ひ is rendaku'd into び.
