加熱把食物弄熟
這一族是核心動作的字面用法:用熱把食物變熟。
prepare food with heat · verb · A1
To make food ready to eat by using heat.
煮、烹飪
Picture food over heat, slowly turning from raw into something ready to eat. That single act — applying heat to make food ready — is the core. From it the word grows two simple ways: the PERSON who does it (a cook), and a set of figures of speech where 'cooking' over hidden heat means something is being secretly prepared, faked, or going really well.

比喻:在暗火上「煮」
把「在火上煮、慢慢變出成品」這個畫面挪去講看不見的事:有東西正被偷偷弄出來、被動手腳,或進行得正熱。煮的不是食物,而是計畫、帳目、或氣勢。

If something is cooking, a plan or idea is being made in a secret way.
(計畫)正在暗中醞釀
做這件事的人
把核心動作的「做的人」名詞化:會煮的那個人就是 cook。再延伸到評論一個人煮得好不好,以及一句關於人多反壞事的諺語。

Someone whose job is to prepare and cook meals.
