The origins of these terms can be traced back to 1494 when the Italian Friar Luca-Pacioli first recorded the double-entry bookkeeping system. It was he that first described the use of the Latin terms 'Credre' and 'Debere' . In the 1500s, English translators used these Latin terms to create the terms 'Debit and Credit'. The Latin terms obviously helped create the bookkeeping abbreviations (Dr.) and (Cr.) as well. This is because there is no 'r' in the English word Debit but there is one in the Latin term 'Debere'.
