That would be better as: 

open DFILE, '<', $dfile or die "can not open '$dfile' because: $!";
open SFILE, '<', $sfile or die "can not open '$sfile' because: $!";
open TFILE, '>', $tfile or die "can not open '$tfile' because: $!";

The code above work if only if the source.txt contain keys separated with space, 

\ca \ra \ka \tl

but fail to work if source.txt is 

\ca\ra\ka\tl
