Now ask yourself when is next Friday. Many of you will not say is it is the next one on the calendar, but the next one following this week




Many of you would be wrong, as that is clearly "next week's friday/friday next week".

So this Friday and next Friday are the same?

The next Friday is this Friday. Next Friday is the one after that. The one after that is the one after next.

Now I’m thinking maybe I should just learn Token.
