6/8 has a recognizable flowing quality, whereas 3/4 feels more stiff. You can also try to see if the bars can be divided into 2 or 3. If it divides into 2, then it's 6/8, if it feels more natural to divide it in 3, that would be a 3/4.

Thanks a million dear Quentin

as you know 3/4 musics can be accompanimented by a valse rhythm and I think it is not possible for 6/8 musics.
what do you think? Am I right?
