Let’s imagine it’s currently Wednesday the 1st. Does “next Saturday” mean Saturday the 4th (the next Saturday to occur) or Saturday the 11th (the Saturday of next week)?

      Thanks for the correction and the reply, now it makes more sense.

      Man I feel like I really earned that correction with some of the replies I got. :p

      This’ is the first Saturday, ‘next’ is the second Saturday, from whatever day that you are in.

      Not *when today is Sunday

      Actually what I said still works. If you’re on a Sunday, you have one Saturday in front of you still, and you would say “this Saturday”.
