There are different rituals for different prayers and different prayers for different rituals and events. Some prayers are chanted standing, some sitting, some involve bowing to HaShem. Other prayers are associated with different times of day and day of week, whether it's a day for reading from the Torah, or saying good bye to Shabbat (the Sabbath) for the week.

In Hebrew, prayer is called Tefillah. In Yiddish, it's called Davening. Each of the prayers has its own name, the best-know being the Shema prayer.
