"-ǭ" meaning in Proto-Germanic

See in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ɔ̃ː/
Etymology: Partial merger of Proto-Indo-European *-ō(n) and Proto-Indo-European *-éh₂ (see also *-ō). The former originally conjugated as Proto-Indo-European amphikinetic n-stems, but because of the *ā > *ō sound change they came to coincide with the latter in the nominative singular, which lead to the suffix ablaut being lost. Why the feminine and masculine *-ō(n) sounded differently in Germanic, despite having originally sounded the same, is an open question.
