    This expression means doing what you promised to do. I think keeping your word is very important because it shows you are honest and reliable.

    I try to always keep my word, and in Spanish we say “cumplir tu palabra”.

      Thanks for this, Elisa. I kept on thinking of a translation and I couldn't come up with one and it's quite simple...
      And I agree with you : keeping your word is very important.
