When you feel like you are about to sneeze, but the urge
disappears when you are already halfway into it. These types of sneezes are not as
satisfying as regular sneezes, and often result in
embarrassment and/or receipt of the "wtf" look.
I was in class when I made an aborted sneeze. I had tried to hold it back, but it came out anyway. Rather than
sounding like "ACHOO", it sounded
more like "ACHoasdfgh". After it
happened, I just sat there and hung my head in shame.
