The word suyo is a possessive pronoun or possessive adjective in Spanish. Its meaning depends on the context and the person being referred to:

His, hers, its, or theirs: It indicates possession by a third person (singular or plural). For example, el libro es suyo (the book is his/hers/theirs).
Yours (formal): It is used as the formal version of "your" when addressing someone using the usted or ustedes form. For example, esta casa es suya (this house is yours).
Idiomatic usage: It can refer to something characteristic of a person, or something that is "their own." For instance, cada loco con su tema (to each their own).
