"falx" meaning in Latin

See falx in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /falks/ [Classical], [fäɫ̪ks̠] [Classical], /falks/ (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical), [fälks] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: Usually derived from Proto-Indo-European *dʰelg- (“to sting; needle”), whence also Proto-Celtic *delgos (“needle; pin”), Proto-Germanic *dalkaz (“pin, brooch; dagger”), Lithuanian dilgùs (“stinging, burning”), dilgėlė̃, dìlgė f (“nettle”), dìlgti, dìlgstu (“to be stung by nettles”), dal̃gis (“scythe”). Both the -a- and the -c- are unexpected, which might suggest a borrowing from a neighbouring Indo-European language of Italy.
