The article analyzes realization of voiceless and voiced plosive consonants in the speech of Russian-speaking bilingual adults of Germany while reading aloud a phonetically representative text. The author measures bilingual adult’s voice pause period regarding the instant of explosion of voiced plosive consonants (Voice on Set Time — VOT), since she considers it the most reliable acoustic indicator to differentiate between voiceless and voiced consonants. Voiced plosive consonants VOT characteristics differ in the Russian and German languages; consequently, inter-lingual phonetic interference occurs.
