Remembrance is the act of remembering someone or something, usually with respect or love - it's a more formal, more emotional word than just 'memory'. It's especially used for remembering people who have died, particularly soldiers who died in war: many countries hold a 'Remembrance Day' or a moment of remembrance for the dead. You wouldn't use 'remembrance' for something small, like remembering where you left your keys - it carries weight.
追念、緬懷(尤指對逝者)
組成It's built from the verb 'remember' plus the ending '-ance', which turns an action into a noun.
