Explanation:
Teresa, acredito que MAKE aqui não possa ser entendido como verbo, pois teria que ser "makes", se fosse o caso. Assim, deve ser substantivo. Veja se se aplica à sua tradução:

–noun 48. the style or manner in which something is made; form; build.
49. production with reference to the maker; brand: our own make.
50. disposition; character; nature.
51. the act or process of making.
52. quantity made; output.
