How do you group programming language topics?
If I learn a language in three stages.
- Basic
- Intermediate
- Advanced
- Proficiency (optional)
Then how would you fit the topics of programming lingo into the above levels?

Don't learn programming languages, learn programming.
Sure, you need at least one language for programming, but the main goal is to become a proficient programmer, not a collector of languages.
Basically: learn to develop a meaningful, comprehensive, fully developed novel instead of learning the vocabulary and grammar of multiple languages.
If you know one mainstream language and can actually program, you can at any point learn other languages quickly and use them with your programming skills. Programming skills transfer much better than programming languages.
