Roots in Hebrew. Whole and Hollow Roots and God's name?

 Roots in Hebrew.

Whole and Hollow Roots and God's name?
Yehovah is from a hollow root and consists of three letter HYH, a verb, meaning “to be” and this is seen in Ex 3:14 where we see “Ehyeh – Asher – Ehyeh”, with the verb “Ehyeh” being in the imperfect state and in Hebrew of the antiquity it meant an action that was repeated or ongoing, not completed, Ehyeh in English terms means “I am/exist and will continue to be/exist” or some similar expression, thus, “Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh” can be understood to mean “I am that/which I am” or “I will be that/which I will be”, these expressions may seem a bit wooden and stiff, but are acceptable translations into basic English, thus, verbs in Hebrew have only two states, perfect and imperfect state thus, God exists and will continue to exist.
When we come to the verb eHYeH this verb contains all three root letters HYH and there may be those who consider HYH as a whole root and not a hollow root, but, they may forget, or more likely do not know, that, different forms of the verb, the second as well as the third letters are discarded, thus, the verb, eHYeH is hollow, not whole, this is important!
If we take as an example, HaYiti, which has the spelling, HYYty, meaning, “I was”, we see that the third letter “H” is not there, that is, the third root letter H and is substituted by the letter Yod, so, instead of HYH we see HYY, but, at the same time we see that the verb Heveh (meaning “be”, spoken as, “Heh Vay) is lacking the second letter “Y” of the root and in its stead is the letter “Vav” and the latter bit of data is extremely important, and why? It means, that with some verb forms the root may appear as HVH, but, in reality it is HYH, this might seems bewildering to some, as there is a root, which in itself is actually HVH, but, is not related and does not carry the same kind of meaning!
Yehovah?
Yehovah is based on the same hollow root HYH, the verb forms, “Hayah, Hoveh, Yih’yeh” (left to right: he was, he is, he will continue to be” when these three verb forms are brought together, they give “Yehovah” (not, “Yahovah”, explained in another paper)!
Yehovah is based on the hollow root HYH and as seen (above) depending on the form the verb takes “Y” can be substituted with “V” and to those, who seem to think that they know what they are talking about (but, really don’t) it can seem that the root is HVH, but, it is not, but, is actually HYH!
Jesus is not the "Alpha and Omega", only his God and Father "Yehovah" (Jehovah) is!
