Muscle is a Middle French word from the late 14th Century. It came directly from "musculus", a Latin word that meant "a muscle", or "little mouse". The shape and movement of some muscles, particularly the biceps, were reminiscent of a mouse. Greeks apparently made the same association and used a word that meant little mouse, as did the Slavs, Germans, and Arabs. But our English word today, "muscle" most definitely originated in the Latin language.
