Does anyone ever actually learn a programming language?

Does anyone ever actually learn the whole language, or do they grasp key concepts and learn to use APIs and how to apply them. Do all programers look up how to do things regardless of how long they've been coding?

Does anyone actually learn a spoken language? Programing languages are just like spoken languages, we know most words, grammar, etc but we still most likely own a dictionary. Even people with years of experience and a computer science degree googel things every now and again. Also like spoken languages programing languages evolve over time so learning all of a language is only possible at certain point in time or with dead languages. Anyway point is I would not worry about learning absolutely everything :)

depending on the Purpose of the project you are working you learn very deeply some group of functions of the language and algorithms As you change projects and field or companies you learn some other group of functions As you said, we always keep learning, new patterns, new functions, better tools So it's unnecessary memorize of try to memorize all the functionality of one language
