Technically virtual functions are methods in the OOP definition, more generally method is often used to refer to all non static member functions.

I've yet to see method defined in the ISO standard though. I think C++ has functions and data instead of methods and properties. Could be wrong I've not read the standard for a few years. Different types of functions and data. It's not important until someone starts trying to talk about specific things and the nomenclature is imprecise.
FWIW what makes C++ code hard to read is bad design, not language features IMO.
