I don't get the question like everybody else; however, my interpretation would be something like "have you fulfilled your vows as a translator" (as if in religion), meaning have you fulfilled what you are supposed to do as a translator. | | |

Makes no sense whatsoever, sorry! | | |
The same applies to me. I have no idea what this question is supposed to mean! I always hope that I get paid as a translator. | | |

Pay one's dues (slang): to earn certain rights, privileges, etc. as by having suffered in struggle. So it might mean: did you have to struggle a lot to become a translator/interpreter? Philippe

sorry... I don't understand the question... According Webster paper dictionary 1993 definition reported by Philippe (Pay one's dues (slang): to earn certain rights, privileges, etc. as by having suffered in struggle. So it might mean: did you have to struggle a lot to become a translator/interpreter?) I would say no...
