​"NEXT WEEK" O "THIS WEEK"

This can create a huge amount of confusion and can result in you turning up (phrasal verb...hmm, I know how much you LOVE them!) for a meeting on the wrong day!

For the purposes of this point, let's assume that today is Monday! 

If you are setting up a meeting for "el jueves que viene" you need to say:

"I will see you this Thursday"

For some reason, it is very tempting for Spanish speakers to say "I will see you next Thursday" but this is not a good idea because a "nativo" will think that you are talking about "El jueves de la semana que viene".

So, try to get it clear in your mind when "this" and "next" should be used because it can avoid a lot of misunderstandings!

Hope that helps!
