​Jeudi, elle a un rendez-vous. -Tu veux dire ce jeudi ou ________ ? On Thursday, she's got a date. -You mean this Thursday or the following Thursday? In this question on the exam, it appears that both «le jeudi d'après» and «le jeudi prochain» would be correct given the phrasing of the question; however, my response was marked as incorrect. Please explain the reason that «le jeudi prochain» would be incorrect in this example as I am unable to comprehend that. Merci, Ron
