The Adventurer's Guide states that many other Elves turned into Drow as well because of the events in that adventure. Good drow exist but the transformation doesn't reverse. They remain drow.

Lolth is a demon lord and a goddess worshipped by the drow (some myths propose that she was originally a goddess who was transformed into a demon). She displays formidable power and great cruelty with an affection for arachnids.
The drow originated in the surface world before the Sundering. ... It's at this point that the drow were forced from the surface and moved underground. When they were still surface elves, they had black skin and so retained that pigmentation underground.
Undercommon isn't a racial language; it's the "common" of the Underdark, and better thought of as a trade language of that realm. It's perfectly appropriate that a drow character might remain ignorant of undercommon (perhaps they have no trade interests). Drow speak Elven (albeit in some evil-sounding accent!)/span>

Infernal is the language spoken by devils and lawful evil outsiders in D&D. It began as the language of the baatezu, the dominant sub-race of devils, and the Nine Hells. The language is alien to humans and may sound harsh to the human ear./span>
It employs sounds that humans describe as hissing (sj, ss, and sv), as well as a noise that sounds like a beast clearing its throat (ach). Draconic words have emphasis on the first syllable. Speakers of Draconic express important ideas by emphasizing the beginnings and the ends of words.
Terran could sound like Tuvan throat singing mixed with purring and grumbling sounds. Ignan could also be clickish, but more like fire crackling with some Vader-like breathing sounds like a roaring fire./span>
Primordial was the language of primordials and elementals. ... It was also considered a language family, so that the elemental languages Aquan, Auran, Ignan, and Terran were considered a group of dialects of Primordial.
