> I started Python 4 months ago. Largely self-study with use of Python documentation, stackoverflow and google. I was thinking what is the minimum that I must know before I can say that I know Python?

Interesting.  I would say that you must know the keywords, how to make
a Class, how to write a loop.  That covers about 85% of it.
