You are correct in that there is a "common" language we all speak. It's generally implied that the old racial languages aren't used much anymore, if they're not completely dead altogether, kind of how Latin is in the real world.
Unfortunately I don't know that the Miqo'te language has ever been addressed. They have dev teams actually working on the Roegadyn language (German-based) and the Elezen language (French-based), the latter of which is shared by Midlander Hyur, I think. But as far as I know nobody's working on Miqo'te, Lalafell, or Highlander languages. I think the selective development of the languages depends largely on how much it's needed from a lore perspective. Roegadyn, for example, still use their old language heavily in their culture and embrace it in their names, so I'm guessing the writers decided they needed an actual dictionary.
I'm hesitant to say you're completely out of luck, because I'm not nearly as knowledgeable as the other people here and might have missed something. Maybe they'll develop something for Miqo'te sometime in the future?
