chuột

[t͡ɕuət̚˧˨ʔ]

[t͡ɕuək̚˨˩ʔ]

From Proto-Vietic *k-ɟɔːt. Cognate with Arem kaɟuət. See also Khmer ជូត (cuut, “Year of the Rat”) (whence also Thai ชวด (chûuat) through Old Khmer), which is a loan from a Vietic language.
Attested as chuọt in the Dictionarium Annamiticum Lusitanum et Latinum (1651).
For the "biceps" sense, compare the parallels in Latin mūsculus (“muscle”, literally “little mouse”) and Ancient Greek μῦς (mûs, “mouse; muscle”).
The computing sense is a semantic loan from English mouse.
