Hi, author of that translator here! This is one of my passion projects and even though the translator leaves much to be desired (as in, I have not published all of my notes, nor added grammatical rules to the translator's process) I am always interested in talking to people who are interested in genuinely learning the language. I am currently in the process of compiling my notes into practical lessons and worksheets like one would find in a mundane-world textbook. If anyone on this forum wants to learn Zorvir's Infernal and would like my assistance or access to additional notes that have not been published on the translator, please feel free to shoot a message my way.
I'd also like to note that the two translators published here for Infernal are not entirely comparable because they seek to invent the Infernal language by two different means. Neither is inherently better than the other, they're just two different styles and one may work better than the other at one person's table and vice versa at someone else's table. I invite all my fellow tiefling enthusiasts to try both and see which works for you. :)

"And what of the Kaazinars? Evil, perhaps, but who else could bring prosperity to the shattered lands of Islos? I, Doomsday, will restore the glory of my family following the cowardice of my father. By the desire of my master Zargon, the Returner, I am fated to rule over the sheep upon which he feeds. For what better end could the people of Islos find than blissful, contented ignorance while my master devours their unaware bodies and souls?"
I don't know if many people still treat the Drow tongue as separate from Elvish, but I'm kind of old school so I usually do. I've found this to be very useful for that purpose:http://www.eilistraee.com/chosen/language.php
For standard Elvish I usually just steal from Tolkien, there are a number of translators for his Elvish languages that are decent.
I Googled and found a dictionary that has some words for giant language. There was also a page that taught the English rules to sentence structure and such for Giant. You might want to add.
I use google translate, each language relates to a real life language, so elvish is Welsh, Dwarven is Norwegian etc. it means I can just use google translate to not just create documents but also speak out in the language so players can hear how it sounds in the native language
Trying the site now. It doesn't really sound good. Seriously, like take a look at the Celestial language, and it sounds like a half ******** kid talking about slop or poo. Maybe it's just a better idea if people use actual languages on Earth and designate them to their fantasy counterparts that sound like it would fit. We have proper Translators for those languages and we have around 100 to choose from. I'm sure we could find something better for Celestial language when using the word "love" it translates to slop, lol.
I can certainly see how not knowing all the languages everyone speaks/understands would be a challenge when taking this approach. Luckily, I DM for Americans, so I'm the only one at my table who'd not a monolinguist.
The D&D 5E learning languages translator guide does a good job of helping you understand the rules for language. However, it lacks a lot of information regarding how to find a language teacher. There are several methods available, but the most common is to find a language course online. The price of online courses is also much lower than traditional classroom programs. You don't need to travel, and you can learn new languages while having fun!

Maybe they meant deep speech? The language of eldritch entities like those who live in the astral sea.

I've got on that might work for Druidic: https://lingojam.com/DruidicTranslator it's not super helpful but it might work.
you don't have goblin on there but if you wanted to add it this might work. lhttp://www.screwytruths.com/Goblin.html
I found a Gnomish translator, this is what I’ve been using to name Gnomish settlements and items

I was looking around and found this giant translator, it's lingojam too.

I do the following:
English: Common
Elvish: French
Sylvan: Latin
Draconic: Welsh
Druidic: Scots Gaelic
I don’t have stuff for the other languages, so I hope you don’t mind if I steal some of your suggestions.
