The more interesting question would be if someone says "Next Saturday" and it's currently Friday, which day do they mean?
at that point they say next saturday it would be the next week. since you have to like use tomorrow if they want to signal for the saturday well... tomorrow.The more interesting question would be if someone says "Next Saturday" and it's currently Friday, which day do they mean?
If it's Tuesday and you say next Wednesday, you mean in 8 days; the Wednesday next week. In this scenario, if you meant in 6 days, you'd ostensibly say this Saturday, not next.
People often say to use "this ___day" if it's in the same week, and "next ___day" if it's in the following week.

Blew my mind when my wife told me Australia consider Sunday the end of the week and not the beginning.
That's even less ambiguous. If they're referring to tomorrow, they'll just say "tomorrow."The more interesting question would be if someone says "Next Saturday" and it's currently Friday, which day do they mean?
If someone said this to me and they meant in 13 days, it would have been the last thing that person ever says to me.
Yeah, this is exactly me.This Saturday - upcoming Saturday
Next Saturday - the one after that
But I also think of weeks as Sunday-Saturday. If someone went Monday-Sunday this would make Sunday confusing.
In the US Sunday is considered the first day of the week
