How to Say ‘Next Saturday’ in Japanese

来週の土曜日

raishuu no doyoubi

[rye-shoo noh doh-yoh-bee]

💬 Usage Tip: Put [の] between time words to narrow them down: [来週の土曜日] is "Saturday of next week," so "next Saturday." The same pattern works in other combinations like [来月の一日] "the first of next month."

What Learners Are Saying

Teaching in Osaka and I wanted to connect with my students beyond the classroom. The everyday conversation scenarios made my Japanese feel natural, not textbook-y.

Mia S., 25, English Teacher

Moved to Tokyo and the polite vs. casual speech levels were killing me. This app breaks it all down with real scenarios. My coworkers noticed the difference in weeks.

Kevin Z., 31, Game Developer

I tried five different apps before this one. The roleplay conversations are what finally made things click. I actually remember what I learn now.
