What Twpsyn means is that the phrase "totus tuus" is Latin, so why would you want to write a Latin phrase with Greek letters?
Lisa: Relax?! I can't relax! Nor can I yield, relent, or... Only two synonyms? Oh my God! I'm losing my perspicacity! Aaaaa!

The Latin would look like this: "Totus tuus"
or like this: "TOTVS TVVS"
The characters are the same, as you can see, except that a capital u is written like a capital v.
