There are a few "word parts" that ares ambiguous (at least at first look) as too if the part is a base or a suffix.
To define my terms here is an example:
Word: <WI/YR"$W./KF>
This is made up of three "word parts":
Prefix: <WI>
Base: <YR"$W.>
Suffix <KF>


There are 9 word parts that can go be either a base or a suffix, and I am trying to figure the logic behind when it is one or the other:
<H"N>
B: gn3:22,4 (Pi) [/in 86 other places/] / da2:5,9 (Pc_D) [/in 15 other places/]
S: ek16:47,10 (S3fp) [/in 2 other places/]

<H"N.FH>
B: 2s4:6,1 (pi3fp) [/in 47 other places/] / gn15:16,4 (Pd) [/in 45 other places/]
S: is34:16,7 (S3fp) [/in 2 other places/]

<HEM>
B: ec3:18,11 (pi3mp) [/only //occurrence/]
S: gn2:25,2 (S3mp) [/in 1923 other places/] / ex30:12,7 (S3mpx) [/in 119 other places/]

<HEN>
B: nu23:9,7 (Pi) [/in 11 other places/]
S: gn19:33,3 (S3fp) [/in 113 other places/] / 2k19:26,1 (S3fpx) [/in 3 other places/]

<HF)>

S: ek41:15,11 (S3fs) [/only occurrence/]

<HIY>

S: ps116:12,5 (S3ms) [/in 64 other places/] / da4:20,12 (S3msx) [/in 3 other places/]

I will start out with two questions:

My first question is with the third one listed <HEM>:
<HEM> as a Base:
ec3:18,11 | $:/HEM | P $E@Pr / B H"M@pi3mp

<HEM> as a Suffix:
gn3:7,3 | $:N"Y/HEM | B $:NAYIM@ucmdc / S HM@S3mp
gn6:13,13 | MI/P.:N"Y/HEM | P MIN@Pp_S / B P.FNEH@ncmpc / S HM@S3mp
gn8:19,11 | L:/MI$:P.:XO^T"Y/HEM | P L:@Pp_S / B MI$:P.FXFH@ncfpc / S HM@S3mp

ec3:18,11 is the only time the word part <HEM> is a base, as pi3mp - every other 2044 places its a suffix as S3mp.
Can anyone explain why?



My second question is with the second one listed <H"N.FH>:
<H"N.FH> as a Base:
lv4:2,18 <M"/H"^N.FH> | P MIN@Pp_S / B H"N.FH@pi3fp
je5:6,15 <M"/H"^N.FH> | P MIN@Pp_S / B H"N.FH@pi3fp
ps34:21,5 <M"/H"^N.FH> | P MIN@Pp_S / B H"N.FH@pi3fp
2s4:6,1 | W:/H"N.FH | P W:@Pc_S / B H"N.FH@pi3fp

<H"N.FH> as a Suffix:
is34:16,7 <M"/H"N.FH> | P MIN@Pp_S / S HNH@S3fp
ek16:51,9 <M"/H"N.FH> | P MIN@Pp_S / S HNH@S3fp
1c21:10,16 <M"/H"N.FH> | P MIN@Pp_S / S HNH@S3fp

The reason I have 2s4:6,1 listed is because it is in the base position, but without an accent.
So how does one determine which it is?
