How about DR
  • Where does the DR come form when the term
    debit doesnt have an r in it? Recall that
    accounting, as we know it today, was formalized
    in the 1500s in Italy. The Italian and Latin (a
    common language back then) verb forms of debit
    are addebitare and debere, respectively. Thus,
    the DR represents an Italian or Latin
    abbreviation of debit.
