✕Common Mistakes
C'est sur ton carte de débit...
Use "ta" only with feminine nouns; "carte" is feminine, so "ta" is correct. A common error is using "ton" here.
C'est sur ton carte de débit...
The preposition "sur" must agree with the gender of the noun via the possessive adjective, not the preposition.
C'est sur ton relevé.
When speaking formally, replace "ton" with "votre"; using "ton" can sound too casual with a bank employee.

Cultural Tip
In France, "carte de débit" is less common in everyday speech than "carte bancaire" or "carte de paiement". When speaking formally (e.g., with a bank representative), use the polite "votre" instead of the informal "ta/ton". Also, French bank statements are called "relevé de compte" and often arrive by mail or online.
