No, for the most part.  Python's so wonderful that 
it will immediately and correctly identify the "false
friends" you happen to type.

For the most part.  If you are sufficiently steeped
in Tcl, you might find it hard to remember powerful
Python idioms--that dictionaries are first-class
objects perfectly suitable for passing, how to make
use of the different quoting syntaxes, that it's 
easy to define your own Exceptions and Classes, and
so on.

You'll do fine.
