Definition
Plural of burglar: people who illegally enter buildings to steal things.
Etymology
From Old French 'burgeis' (inhabitant of a city) combined with the element '-lar.' The word evolved from describing city residents to describing those who rob them, passing through Anglo-Norman legal terminology.
Kelly Says
Burglary requires the specific intent to steal before entering a building, which legally distinguishes it from simply breaking in—meaning the crime is defined by what the burglar planned to do, not what they actually do, a principle that reveals how law focuses on criminal intent as much as action.
