When is a W not a double-you?

This may be a question that has already been asked but if so I've not seen it. How do people usually speak of a character's score when masteries are involved? Say my character has Knit Spaghetti Vests at 12w2 - how would I describe this score to the narrator if he asked?

12 mastery 2?
12 with two masteries?
Hopefully not 12 double-you 2?

I realise there's no right or wrong here but I'd be interested to know if there's an emerging convention before I run a HW demo.
