I find pronunciation of that word hard

That word was difficult/hard for me to pronounce

I struggle pronouncing that word

If something is not easy to do you would say you find it 'difficult' or 'hard'
If you find it hard/difficult then you can say you 'struggle' to do it

「難しい」は'difficult'や'hard'と言えます。
'to struggle'は「難しいと感じる」という意味です。
