Morphology

aborning = born (semi-transparent) = a + born + ing

Using the most recognizable base 'born', the form suggests an ongoing state of birth, though the whole construction is archaic in modern English.

Etymology

Aborning comes from the old prefix a- meaning 'in' and the word born meaning 'to come into the world', so it can mean 'in the process of being born' or 'just coming into existence'. That's why we can say a plan or idea was stopped aborning when it was stopped while still forming.
