What's that supposed to mean?

Perhaps they meant "sí" with an accent over the i (meaning "yes&quot as opposed to "si" with no accent (meaning "if&quot . That accent is not big deal in English, but it completely changes the meaning of the sentence in Spanish.

On edit, ¡The inverse exclamation is also missing!
