Can you not credit it getting one into debt? (5)
I believe the answer is:
debit
'can you not credit it' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'one into debt?' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'into' indicates putting letters inside.
'i' going inside 'debt' is 'DEBIT'.
'getting' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for debit that I've seen before include "Payment made or owed" , "Sum taken from account" , "Remove (money) from account" , "Sum removed from a bank account" , "Accounting entry showing sums owing" .)
