"Real Wages" are wages that are adjusted for inflation and rising prices. As prices rise, people are able to buy less and less with their "nominal" (aka un-adjusted)  wages.

One example is gas for your car. If you make $1000 a month and gas goes up from $2.50 to $3, your un-adjusted wages stay the same (you still make $1000) but you can't buy as much of other things because your "real" wages have effectively gone down due to the price increase of gas.
