It is not a question but an informal command. Make the bed. Something a parent might say to a child.

Hacer = To do/make.

¡Haz la cama! Means to make the bed. it is a command, but unlike most commands like:

¡cepilla los dientes! brush your teeth!

¡Lava los manos! wash your hands!

The conjugation of the verb hacer is irregular. The incorrect form of this command is ¡hace la cama! it is actually ¡haz! Another verb that changes when it is a command is poner, as in ¡Pon the mesa! as supposed to ¡Pone la mesa! (which means set the table)

Hope this helps! smile
