Tsunami

A tsunami is a really big wave caused by an earthquake, a landslide, or a volcano. When the ground shakes a lot, it sends a big wave of water out from the shore. This wave can go really fast and be really tall. Tsunamis can cause a lot of destruction to buildings and other things near the shore, so it's important to get to a safe place if you're in an area that is predicted to have a tsunami.
