The present article deals with bilingual communication culture as a multifaceted problem. Theoretical analysis of the content, peculiarities of bilingual communication culture and other key notions, makes it possible to reveal the essence of bilingual communication culture and define it as a constituent part of the general culture of communication necessary for cross-cultural interaction and information exchange between bilingual individuals by means of native and foreign languages. There are two main concepts considered in the paper, namely bilingual communication culture and second language acquisition (SLA). The former is used to denote special knowledge and communication skills requisite for gaining positive experience in productive bilingual communication within multicultural interaction and sharing this experience with the representatives of other nations. The latter is a complex process of a spontaneous mastering a foreign language under the influence of linguistic, psycholinguistic, contextual, developmental and individual factors that predetermine language transfer, language level and the duration of second language acquisition. The research emphasises the necessity to form bilingual communication culture within the framework of second language acquisition.
