I know of 2 sites.....one of them is good, one isnt as good. the good one is http://www.mindspring.com/~sylverion/nwn/dictc_d.htm for the common to drow dictionary....my computer crashed 3 times trying to open it, finally got it up now. however, it hasnt been updated in 5 years.
the other one is in my favorites...http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Labyrinth/5637/Languagesearch.html. Yet, just looking thru the text database they have on the second site, ive already seen mistakes, so i wouldnt trust them. (they have C'rintri listed as the word for a drow noble. it means half drow male.)
However, I did save the Drow Dictionary (the good one) to my computer some time back. If you give me your email address, i can email you the html files(at the point i got it, i had sporadic internet, so i saved it)

Just looking for something where the works already pretty much done, kind of annoying to have to make the adventure, write up all the NPC's, play all said NPC, figure out the DC of Everything, be the Ref, and come up with a detailed language all at the same time. So I want to add hock one of those jobs.

Hmm, let me try again. What I was trying to ask was what you needed a complete drow lexicon for? Lord knows I understand wanting to leave some adventure prep to someone else. Is is that you're having extended drow interaction and don't feel like mumbling drow alot or perhaps a puzzle that relies on the dark elf language? Again, just curious.

Pretty much exactly that I want to be able to have my Drow actually speak Drow, make it so they could scream tactic's in the PC's faces and unless they know Drow, couldn't figure it out in order to counter it.
There's always the expediency of saying, "They shout something unintelligible. The words have an alien sibilance to them..."
Don't use the language tactic too frequently, or rely upon it too heavily. It's easily countered with the Tongues spell.
Or, alternatively, rely upon it really heavily. Drow are arrogant twits. They may not think surface-dwellers are smart enough to bother preparing a non-combat spell for a combat use....
