Definition
打包 (dǎ bāo) means 'to pack up' into a bundle, with a very common use for taking leftovers home from a restaurant. It is a separable verb (e.g., 打一个包). Compared to 包 (bāo), which is a general 'wrap/bundle', 打包 emphasizes forming a package; 包装 (bāo zhuāng) is for commercial packaging; 包裹 (bāo guǒ) is more formal and often for parcels.
verb
to pack upto wrap (for moving, storage, etc.)to pack leftovers for takeout (at a restaurant)(computing) to package (files into an archive)
