What is a *slightly* less extreme equivalent to being "fluent" in a language?
- by Mehrdad
tl;dr: What is a less extreme (but still noticeable) alternative to the word "fluent", when saying e.g. "I am fluent in C++/Python/whatever?"
I think I can call myself "fluent" in C#, because I know the language and runtime very well, and I'm very familiar with the .NET framework's APIs and classes, etc.
I would like to claim the same thing for Python and C++.
But while I can program in Python (I did so for an entire summer, making a website with Django), for example, I would not call myself fluent because my code isn't always "Pythonic" (e.g. using map/filter vs. list comprehensions), and I'm not too intimate with some aspects of the language and standard library yet (e.g. the introspection API, etc.).
Is there a word or phrase I can use on e.g. a resume to describe what I know?
I can think of "very familiar with", but is there a better word/phrase I can use?
