CEFR: A1-A2 /emerg-ing/ [ih0.m.er1.jh.ih0.ng]

Things that are emerging are just being born — or they're reaching an adult state. The important thing is they're growing and developing.

You could say an improved baseball team is an emerging force in the National League, or a new disease is an emerging threat.

Emerging things can be brand new but aren't necessarily: they could just be beginning to develop. Emerging means something close to sprouting — when you think of this word, think "growing." Used in a sentence, “It is a weird thing when you realize your children are emerging into adulthood right in front of you.”
