From Middle Dutch baren. The a in the stem and the weak inflection are unetymological, but their origin is unknown. The form developed from and displaced the older strong beren (still found in modern ontberen), from Old Dutch beran, from Proto-Germanic *beraną. Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *bʰer-.

baren

1. (transitive) to bear, to give birth to

   Zij heeft een zoon gebaard.

   She has borne a son.

2. (transitive) to cause, to bring about

   Dit baart me zorgen.

   This causes me worry.

The strong past participle geboren is also used, but only with the meaning "given birth, born".
