also, why is it that prepositions have one type of vowel when standing
independently (e.g. segol) and then change when inflected,
(e.g. sere) and then change even furthur when they are heavily affixed (e.g.
hateph)? is that not evidence of length of vowel?

Could you give specific examples of such prepositions?

Thanks,
