I'm trying to learn a song from sheet music and it's not written in the original key (C#minor). The sheet music has this note. "This edition has been transposed down one half step to be more playable" (C minor). At the bridge, the key signature has 3 natural signs. What does this mean in terms of the original key signature? ?/?
Thanks!

O.K., if you are in the key of C# minor, that means the key signature has 4 sharps; F#, C#, G#, D# (E is relative major). And you say that it gets to the bridge and there are 3 natural signs, that means there is one sharp left, probably the F#. This means, you have modulated up (changed keys) to the key of either G major or E minor.

If it was written in C# minor and then there were 4 natural signs, what key would it become then?

You would be in the key of C or A minor. The key signature for that is no sharps or flats.
