And Perl6 has now invented its own word, "twigil"? Sigil was already a bad enough word. I used Per5 for a ton of production code years ago, and I've met Larry Wall and he is a brilliant and friendly person, but I am sad to say there is absolutely zero chance of Perl6 being adopted for a serious production software project, probably ever. It doesn't bring new capabilities, it's just different, and in a mostly-worse way.
