Let’s imagine it’s currently Wednesday the 1st. Does “next Saturday” mean Saturday the 4th (the next Saturday to occur) or Saturday the 11th (the Saturday of next week)?

This always bothers me when I hear it. If you MEAN Saturday just SAY Saturday, no need to bring a confusing “next” into the equation. If I need to know, I’ll ask for clarity.
If I say Saturday, that’s a replacement for “this Saturday”. “Next Saturday”, 7 days after “this Saturday” or “Saturday”.
