Will "Sambhar" taste differently?

Please post ASAP ingrediants of both and also of "Kannada Sambhar".

Also, please add a few sentences about taste change when "h" is added along with "A".

Thank You

Scientific studies have shown that repeated use of the 'h' sound when saying "sAmbAr" has a deleterious effect on the taste buds in certain sections of the tongue. This reduces the ability to taste certain ingredients and combinations of ingredients used in the sAmbAr poDi / puDi. Further studies have shown that prolonged use of the 'h' sound can have a similar debilitating effect on the olfactory receptors receptacles as well. Studies on people suffering from extreme forms of this condition have shown that they are unable to distinguish between sAmbAr and daal!   In ancient India, people who suffered from the extreme form of this condition were no longer considered as cultured "Aryans". They experienced such prejudice from the rest of the Indian society that, they were some of the first converts to Islam and Christianity. Often, the people who cooperated with invading Islamic and European barbarians were known to suffer from this condition. This is well-documented in vernacular historical accounts. The moral of this story is that the wrong pronunciation of the name of an the important culinary treasure of a nation can result in the downfall and enslavement of the entire nation. Don't be an anti-national. If you love your country, learn to properly pronounce sAmbAr. It is your civic and patriotic duty.

some of the ingredients listed under the photograph in the linked recipe are: cinnamon, cumin, and poppy seeds. I don't think that these ingredients are used in any authentic, southern indian sambaar. mr. iyer is probably a neo-matungan or a santa monica iyer, and seems to be trying to create a sambaar that the emperor jahangir might have liked.

the sambaar is a simple dish, but must be prepared with just the right ingredients, using the right process, including crushing and grinding with with mortar and pestle, and proper tempering with hot oil, mustard seeds, and dried red chillies, while carnatic music plays in the background.

to telega peepals, neo-matungans, and northpeepals: no cardamoms, please!

 A mallu makes Sambar, which was originally created by the Marathas, to probably go with the Kannadiga creation; the dosas (note the spelling) or the Sinhala creation; the idlis, while listening to carnatic music, without understanding the meaning, the philosophical depth, and the poetic finesse of the Telugu compositions or feeling the bhakti bhava for the hindu gods, while trying to act like a tamilian. This is what the other on the board would say, 'Synthesis'.

Which country?  

Is there a land spot or a "Sambhar Temple" where Sambhar first came out of the ground? If someone makes the place specific then will help associate accent of that land spot.

Otherwise, the spelling and pronunciation changes every few miles.

Is the "h" and "u" the British "h", "u" or american? 

Is the "u" Indian?
