Hi I'm Georgina from BBC Learning English. Do you ever wonder about the differences between next, the next and nearest?
Next means 'immediately after this one' and is often used with day, week, month or year.
I go on holiday next Tuesday.
I'll start my diet next week.
The next means 'the period of time starting from now'.
The next two weeks are very busy.
It'll be cold for the next few days.
Nearest means 'the closest to something or someone in distance'.
The nearest bus stop is over there.
I think we should stay at Susie's. She lives the nearest to the airport.
Right I'm off to the nearest cafe to get a coffee!
Bye!
