What is the difference between these two words "dying" and "dead"?
These two words are same to describe people who are no longer living.
So, I wanna know the difference between these two words.
Better to explain in specified situation.
Thanks in advance.

First, I need to tell you to never write "wanna" it's not done by native speakers.
"Dying" means "the act of dying". "As he lay dying, he asked for his son."
"Dead" means "death has already happened". "After he spoke to his son, he stopped breathing. He was dead."

If it is dying it is still alive. If it is dead it is not alive
