Morphology

dedicated + abortionist

The meaning is directly compositional: 'dedicated' (firmly committed) combined with 'abortionist' (an agent who performs abortions, analyzable as abortion + -ist) yields 'a practitioner primarily focused on abortions.' The agentive morphology and transparent semantic contributions of both parts — common across many languages — make this understandable to a B1 learner who knows the constituents.

Etymology

Dedicated abortionist combines two clear images: dedicated means someone who gives most of their time and effort, and abortionist is a doctor who 'performs abortions'. That's why the phrase refers to a doctor whose main work is to 'perform abortions'.
