Default settle a dispute....

so today is friday, february 9th....

if you were talking to someone about sunday, february 11th, would you say "this sunday" or "next sunday" ????

i say it's "this sunday" because it's the one coming up.....& "next sunday" would be the 18th (as in "not this sunday, but next sunday")

now my friend says it's "next sunday" because it's the "next" sunday


so which is it???? (as far as you are concerned) LOL

"this sunday"


using "next sunday" in that context just doesn't seem right

how about this?

whenever highway signs say "NEXT EXIT", its the first exit coming up. theres no sign saying "THIS EXIT"

i think they are interchangeable.
