adding hash to a hash

[JupiterHost.Net]

Howdy group,
This seems like it should be simple, but I'm a bit stumped on the best 
way to do this:

I want to add a hash to a hash,
With arrays you could:
 push @arr2, @arr2;
but what is the best way to do that with a hash?
perl -MData::Dumper -mstrict -we 'my %q=(1=>2,3=>4);my 
%w=(5=>6,7=>8);print Dumper \%q;'

So how can I add %w to %q in that example?
IE so it outputs:
$VAR1 = {
          '1' => 2,
          '7' => 8,
          '5' => 6,
          '3' => 4
        };
TIA
