The answer

DEBIT

What debit means

A charge or withdrawal of money from a bank account or financial account, recorded as an amount owed or removed.

Where the word comes from

From Middle French *debite*, meaning "that which is owed," derived from Latin *debitus*, the past participle of *debere*, meaning "to owe." The Latin root combines *de-* (from) and *habere* (to have), so literally "to have from" or "to be obliged." The accounting sense—an entry recording money owed or withdrawn—became standard in English by the 16th century.
