This is assuming 3 days a week for 2 hours a day. I will be training at Sityodtong, if that matters much. I know everyone is different but in 4 months will I have a general understanding of Muay Thai or still be learning the very basics?
Truth is, you never stop learning the basics and to actually perfect the basics takes many years of training. However, 4 months should give you a basic understanding of the fundamentals and even some practical application (sparring). 4 months will give you enough knowlege of the basics that you can keep practicing them throughout the year without having as much time to commit! Not to mention, 4 months will get you in great shape!
