What is the difference between "adept" and "deft"? It's similar to that between mastery and artistry. "Adept" often describes a person, as in, "Messi is adept at dribbling a soccer ball." "Deft," on the other hand, is usually applied to the product of an act, such as "deft brush strokes." This is part of a complete episode.
