When Is Next Friday?

A simple enough question. What do you think?

Re: When Is Next Friday?

You'd think that NEXT Friday would be Friday next, the 12th.

But that could be THIS Friday.
In which case NEXT Friday is the 19th.

We have this misunderstanding/argument all the time in this family.

I've come to the conclusion that it all depends how many days are due to elapse...if it's 3 or less then it's the 19th

That's what I would usually say, but the next Friday we see is actually the 12th

But I think of it as the 12th Ruthio, as to me, it is the next Friday coming.

Otherwise I'd either say '2 Fridays time', or 'Friday week' if I meant the 19th.
