This pilot study sheds light on how young Russian
immigrants (n=10) produce Finnish segmental
duration and length in read-aloud speech as
compared to native Finnish speakers (n=5). Segment
duration is distinctive in Finnish and an important
feature of Finnish phonology, whereas in Russian it
only plays a marginal role. The results show a
general tendency of durational contrasts being
difficult to learn with great interspeaker differences.
