Obviously, not everyone in the world uses the same language. As the web grows it is becoming more common to find pages that are available in multiple languages. A standard was therefore introduced, called content negotiation, that allows a person to set the language(s) they prefer to receive documents in. The actual version delivered is negotiated between your browser and the server; your browser sends its preferences and the server decides which version to send based on your preferences, and what versions of the document are available.
