EIAM: Steal vs Rob
Segments
Both to steal and to rob mean 'to take something without permission'.
To steal focuses on the object or the thing which is taken. For example: Hey! Somebody just stole my phone.
Rob focuses on the victim of the crime.
For example: The men robbed a bank last night.
I wouldn't say: Someone robbed my phone.
I would say: They robbed me and stole my phone.
