Thanks and files wouldn't work at all?I would only call them "binders".
I know that this might be beyond the scope of this thread but would you so kind as to clarify the difference between file and binder for me? I have heard native speakers use file to refer to any container containing documents but I also know that files can be documents too. I am really confused about the difference, so I'd be really grateful if you could help.Not for me. I might put my files in binders.
Please, only native speakers!
Are these called both files and binders? Each has two rings and a lever that's used to open and close the rings.

I call them ring binders.
