Is the phrase "Real English" correct and natural in itself?

Hello, I often saw:

Learn Real English
Real English Conversations

I think what they refer to is "real-life or real-world" but those words are not mentioned.
So, I was wondering if I just name a computer folder "Real English" and put resources inside it that are "Real-life English" related is an acceptable naming.

Note my corrections above.

The majority of people with more than just a basic grasp of English would take it to mean "English that's used in real life/day-to-day speech/writing". Is the folder just for your own use or will you be sharing it with other people?
