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)?

    In my language we can use a word that would translate to nearest / closest Saturday but the equivalent of this Saturday works fine too, to pin point the first upcoming one. Something like next Saturday is a shortcut from Saturday in the upcoming week — which in full form is used pretty often too.
