It's customary to write Debit on Left side and Credit on Right side in double entry accounting system.

The genesis of these words dates back to little over 500 Years and the credit goes to an Italian named Friar Luca-Pacioli.
Friar Luca-Pacioli. is the first to use the Latin terms
Credre meaning "to entrust something"‘: Short form "Cr" and
Debere meaning "to owe someone" : Short form "Dr"
(That's how "r" in Dr from Debere ).
Later , these words got transformed in to ‘Debit and Credit’.
Well, we all have Debit Cards and Credit cards. here is some Good Gyan.
