"falkô" meaning in Proto-Germanic

See falkô in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈɸɑl.kɔːː/
Etymology: There is a clear connection with Latin falcō, but it is unknown whether this word was borrowed from Germanic into Latin or the other way around. Owing to its widespread use and early attestation in Germanic languages, and relatively late appearance in Latin, it is likely that the word originated in Germanic, from Proto-Indo-European *pelH- (“pale, grey”) + *-(u)k-, a suffix found in the names of several types of birds (e.g. *alkǭ, *habukaz, Proto-West Germanic *kranuk, etc.).
