In this paper we investigate ng th ＂boil＂ and ＂boiler＂. There are four e usage of bao in missionary books and other Cantonese books from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Our finding is that the meaning of bao is ＂to boil something till it boils＂ and that it first occurred in phrases like ＂baocha＂ （煲茶）, ＂bao shui＂ （煲水） and so on and then came to take the meaning of ＂boiler＂. Our conclusion is that bao came from the English word ＂boil＂ in the 18th century.
