6/8 means 6 beats per measure and each beat is an eighth note.  The 4/4 is four beats per measure with each beat a quarter note.  So even though the 4/4 has less beats, the beats are slower, so the 4/4 measure is actually longer than the 6/8 measure.  It would go kind of like this:<br><br>One-two-three-four-five-six<br>One-two-three-four-five six<br>One-and-two-and-three-and-four-and<br><br>And so on.]]></content:encoded>
