大下星期

[klortho]

Has anybody ever heard of this to mean "the week after next"? I can't find it in any dictionaries.

[elina]

Usually when saying “天”，we use "大"，for example,

前天或后天的前一天或后一天 [further ahead or behind], 如:大前天;大后天

But when we saying "星期"，I prefer to use 下下星期或下下礼拜。

its 下下星期，i think.

Here's one:

How would you say Every Other Week?

I think I heard my friend say Ge XingQi?

[elina]

"Every Other Week":

I would say 每隔一个星期。

I just talked to my tutor again. I guess, after reading the posts, I started to feel less confident that I'd heard her correctly. But, she confirmed that she commonly uses "大下星期" and "大上星期". Her putonghua is very standard. Do you others agree with these usages? If you heard them uttered, would you understand right away what was meant?

Does she speak another dialect? Anyways, in Cantonese we say 下个再下个星期。Different regions have different conventions.
