It is Spanish. "Y tu mama tambien" (and your mother too) was a Mexican
movie in 2001 that was supposed to be pretty good. "Tu" is the familiar
"you" or "your"
Su, like tu, can mean "your." The difference between your (tu) and your
(su) lies in the degree of formality the speaker wishes to convey.
Mi casa es tu casa.
(speaking to someone you would address as "tú")
Mi casa es su casa.
(speaking to someone you would address as "usted")
