Here are all of them for Python 3:


and                 elif                import              raise
as                  else                in                  return
assert              except              is                  try
break               finally             lambda              while
class               for                 nonlocal            with
continue            from                not                 yield
def                 global              or
del                 if                  pass

30 total.

I say, append a _ and you're fine.
