Yep, you debit or credit an specific account, and to make things extra confusing, a debit on one account is always the same as a credit on a different account (and the other way around).

Somehow transaction intermediaries made some incredible bullshity product differentiation out of those words... and what makes everything worse is that, since they are intermediaries, every transaction is both a debit and a credit on their own accounting.
