Question: What is the difference between dalangin and dasal?

Dalangin = although it can be "prayer" you can interpret it as the request itself (with one of it's translations being earnest request) or focus on the desired effect/outcome of the prayer.Dasal = is kind of like the prayer itself or actual act of praying (magdasal = to pray).Extra note: "Panalangin" is used also for prayer. I hear my family use this a lot. Usually when asking someone (many times whomever they're speaking to) to pray for something.

@AmboyBaritone dalangin is a noun and dasal is a verb

@borr Salamat! Your explaination helped me a lot too.

@Jenessa Walang anuman, I'm glad it helped!

Interchangeable in most cases. Dasal is a Spanish loanword. From "rezar"

@hamilee They are both nouns. Both have related verbs (manalangin, magdasal, etc.)

@leosmith
I stand corrected
