The difference between the total debits and total credits in a single account is the account's balance. If debits exceed credits, the account has a debit balance; if credits exceed debits, the account has a credit balance.[3] For the company as a whole, the totals of debit balances and credit balances must be equal as shown in the trial balance report, otherwise an error has occurred

Debit is an accounting entry recording a sum owed, in my word debit - what come in, all the receiver and all expense and loses.
