This is from wowwiki:
Thalassian
Three-letter words: Ano, Dur, Tal, Nei, Ash, Dor, Anu, Fal, Tur, Ala, Nor, Osa
Four-letter words: Alah, Andu, Dath, Mush, Shar, Thus, Fulo, Aman, Diel, Dieb, Rini, Anar
Five-letter words: Talah, Adore, Ishnu, Bandu, Balah, Fandu, Thera, Turus, Shari, Shano, Terro, Eburi
Six-letter words: Dorini, Shando, Ethala, Fallah, Belore, Do'rah, Neph'o, Man'ar, Ishura, U'phol, T'as'e
Note: The language algorithm used by the in-game "translator" merely makes the words look like Thalassian. It does not actually translate words. Therefore, translated in-game speech isn't truly Thalassian.
Darnassian

Four-letter words: Alah, Aman, Anar, Andu, Dath, Dieb, Diel, Fulo, Mush, Rini, Shar, Thus
Five-letter words: Adore, Balah, Bandu, Eburi, Fandu, Ishnu, Shano, Shari, Talah, Terro, Thera, Turus
Six-letter words: Asto're, Belore, Do'rah, Dorini, Ethala, Falla, Ishura, Man'ar, Neph'o, Shando, T'as'e, U'phol
Note: The language algorithm used by the in-game "translator" merely makes the words LOOK like Darnassian. It does not actually use a specific dictionary. Therefore, translated in-game speech isn't true Darnassian.
Hope this helps!

Thanks Rhyela, Is it totally random?
I thought certain words translated to certain words, such as Lol in Orcish is Kek.

Most of it is random, yes. There are a few much used phrases, like 'lol' that do have a solid translation though. That one is Kek in Orcish, and Dur in Common. XD
There are a few more official translation for the names of areas and things, so check out the whole page on WowWiki for the two.

This might help you. I write wow fanfics too and I since I often play a blood elf, I wanted to get a bit of their language into my prose.
