Eh,it kinda does sound that way.
In which you are saying "Su Casa",its kinda like saying someone's house.Sorry,I cant remember with "su" verbs ^^;

Tsukasa is pronounced in a different manner. n.n;; People seem to think that 'tsu' sounds like 'su', but it doesn't. There's a difference between the two as they're both Japanese letters. It's 'su' with a short 't' at the beginning of it. I can't describe it without actually saying it.

The definition, if I'm correct, of the kanji for 'tsukasa' is 'director / manager'.

The best way I've found for describing how the 'tsu' sound works, is...

Think of the word "It's". Now take the 'I' off of it. Put a u after it instead, and say it that way. (Its-u-ka-sa, then Tsukasa, once you get the hang of it) ^^;; If that's still hard, well... not sure what to say... It took me some practice to say it right, but I always learned it from the word Tsunami.

"Su" isn't a verb, it's a possesive adjective. (e.g. My=Mi, Your(informal)=Tu, His/Hers/Your(formal)=Su)

Mi casa es Tsukasa? I don't think so.
