Comments Thread For: Man is Charged in Burglarizing The Home of Chris Eubank Jr.

Why ?

One question - all the money Chris Eubank jr has, why not get a burglar alarm system installed in his house?

If he did none of this would've happen. Dumbass.

You need a refresher in English.

https://grammarist.com/usage/burgle-burglarize/

In American English, the verb burgle, meaning to rob, is regarded as a humorous backformation from burglar, and burglarize is the preferred term in serious contexts.

In British English, it’s the other way around. Burgle is a legitimate verb, used even in sober news reports, and burglarize (or burglarise, as it would probably be spelled if it were an accepted word in British English) is virtually nonexistent in serious contexts.

Irish, Australian, New Zealand, and South African writers tend to go along with British writers on this. Canadians prefer burglarize.

Burglar has a long history going back at least to the Medieval Latin burglator and probably beyond. Burgle and burglarize both came about in the late 19th century—neither is significantly older than the other—developing separately on opposite sides of the Atlantic.
