The Language of the Drow
Drow Language--origional file
Drow Language, HTML version
Part of the language of the drow is found in Drow of the Underdark
(TSR Book). This entire thing was found on the above page, so they hold
responsibility for it. I am just putting it in HTML format for easier reading.

Many of the Drow words and phrases appearing below are excerpts from
"The
Drow of the Underdark" by TSR, Inc., and other authorized AD&D sources.
Where applicable, these excerpts are displayed in capital letters. The
remaining Drow words and phrases have been developed by the Temple of
Lloth ("TOL"). This dictionary may be distributed through licensed TSR
sites and used in connection with any AD&D role-playing activity.
However,
TOL requests that no alterations or additions be made to this dictionary
for use in Neverwinter Nights ("NWN") without the consent of the TOL GM.
This dictionary has been prepared by the Sorcere for the use of the Drow
in dealing with other races and as a guide for other races in the proper
dealings with the Drow. To facilitate such use, the majority of this
Dictionary has been translated into Common.
Any Drow allowed contact with other races should have received training
in
proper conduct elsewhere, thus no effort has been made to supplement
such
training here. Non-Drow are advised to pay heed to these Usage Notes.
Many
Drow societies welcome mutually profitable or pleasurable dealings with
other
races or societies. However, the Drow are a justly proud people and are
quick to take offense -- often fatal offense -- at what they perceive to be
insults or breaches of etiquette.
You have been warned.
