    on Sunday my friend said we should hangout “this weekend” (he meant Saturday) and i corrected him saying that would be “next weekend” … I’m right, right?

      No, you’re wrong. This weekend means the next up coming weekend. Next weekend means the one after that. Unless you were talking super early on Sunday morning and you were confused whether he meant that afternoon. But like, critical thinking skills are important in communication.
