But it is exactly the case - the command to translate and a question>>
about result of translation simultaneously.
Both of these are covered by either part: a question about what the translation is *is* a request to translate (i.e., supply the result of translation) and a command to supply the result of translation is to ask what that result is (supply an anwer to this question).

At first glance, this looks like the English "Do what?" "What did you command me to do?" (or maybe "What did I command you to do?"). But I don't suppose it really is. How can it be taken seriously *as a command* (over and above the question value)? Or does the interrogative force override all other command functions?
