At one time, it seems to have referred to someone who had lots of expertise in a subject, but today, it mainly refers to someone who has only a superficial or casual knowledge of something, yet tries to pass himself or herself off as an expert. For example: She thinks she knows a lot about Shakespeare's plays, but really she is just a dilettante.
