This Time Next Week

Product Information

My point is that with understanding of what next actually means, it is not ambiguous. As you pointed out, the definition is that the next one is the one that follows THIS one. As long as we use THIS for this coming and this past, the days referred to as LAST and NEXT are perfectly clear. Your dictionary apparently used the word PRESENT, but on Thursday, Sunday coming doesn’t really work as PRESENT. If you say, I would like to go shopping on present Sunday, people would probably figure out that you mean this coming Sunday, but it makes much more sense to say this coming Sunday (this Sunday, for short), as on Thursday, it’s not presently any day but Thursday, which we would simply refer to as TODAY. Like I said, we always use tense in these situations, and if we also use THIS, we are always clear about the exact day. Then when we add in LAST & NEXT (to THIS), we can also be perfectly clear that last is just previous to this past, and next is just after this coming. No need to refer to the ambiguous WEEK.

TEENS 3 – FUTURE FORMS PRACTICE – TEENS IV - […] https://englishlessonsbrighton.co.uk/future-tenses-exercise/ […] This is a common, and logical, way to describe days in the coming weeks. Still, many English speakers do interpret next differently, and us it to simply mean the coming day. If you have any doubt about whether someone means the coming Friday, or the Friday of the following week, you can ask them to clarify: Next usually refers to the following object in a sequence, for instance “The next bus leaves in 10 minutes.” This usually refers to an object that is immediately occurring, or can be seen. So when the bus is in sight, we could say “This bus looks crowded. Let’s get the next bus.” Dictionary definition of “next”–“(of a time) coming immediately after the time of writing or speaking.” and
