Morphology
a + week + from + next + Tuesday
The phrase is compositionally built from 'a week' (seven days), 'from' (marking the starting point) and 'next Tuesday' (the upcoming Tuesday), so its meaning is directly derivable by adding one week to that day. The temporal pattern 'a week from [time]' is a common, rule-governed construction (found cross-linguistically), making the expression transparent to a B1 learner who knows the constituent words.
Etymology
A week from next Tuesday paints a simple calendar picture: mark next Tuesday on the calendar and then count seven days forward to reach a week later. So, it means 'one week after the upcoming Tuesday'.
