Stealing is not just “stealing”. Robbery, you are actually threatening someone and stealing, burglary you are stealing and breaking and entering, shoplifting you are just stealing.
Burglary is when you illegally enter an establishment and take steal something. Shoplifting is when you leave the store with an item you did not intend to buy. Shoplifting can also be when someone intentially changes price tags between items. Robbery is when you take money from an individual with some sort of threat of violence.
