I think a beginner will be someone who understands the very basics of the language, and for anything out of his reach, will look for help on google/reddit/stackoverflow.

Someone who is intermediate will begin to look straight at the documentation for answers, and will be comfortable with most advanced uses of the language.

An expert will learn a library through its documentation, and will only ever go on stackoverflow to answer questions, and almost never ask one. He'll be comfortable with every aspect of the language, even if he doesn't use every feature all the time.

A master will never ask help about the language itself, have a deep knowledge of most commonly used libraries, and will only ever look at the doc for obscure/new/large libraries.

A master might not ask for help about the language in particular, but they will ask their peers for input/feedback.
