Research direction

Start at the humanize.naturalday entry point and inspect how its current arguments and date wording are tested. Compare the proposed parameter with a separate humanize.naturalweekday function, then define coverage for up to six previous and next days; done means the selected API consistently produces weekday phrasing such as "last Friday" or "this Monday".

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I suggest to use weekdays to refer to up to 6 next and 6 last days, as in "last Friday" or "this Monday", when calling humanize.naturalday either when requested through a function call parameter or by using a new function (e.g. humanize.naturalweekday )
