Does this sign have a spelling error?
I saw this printed sign in my bank. The text is: Nosotros te explicamos cómo puedes rendir su dinero a las fiestas. I interpret this as: We explain to you how to render (give) your money at the holidays. Since this sentence is not a question, shouldn't cómo actually be como?
Thanks for your answers.
