It's common to use to verb burgle in Britain, while in the United States people are more likely to say burglarize. Both words basically means "to steal from inside a building." If you burgle and are caught, the crime you'll be charged with is called "burglary." Burgle has been in use since the 1860's, when it was a jokey, colloquial word based on burglar, with its Latin root of burgare, "to break open."
