One possible interpretation of this is that the server may provide fall-back choices: the message body for "HTTP 406 not acceptable" can give a list of available resources and let the user choose, or the server can be configured to serve, arbitrarily, a specific variant of the resource in case negotiation fails.

Une interprétation possible de cette phrase, c'est que le serveur peut proposer un ou plusieurs choix de repli : le corps du message de la réponse « HTTP 406 Non acceptable » peut donner une liste des ressources disponibles parmi lesquelles l'utilisateur choisira, ou encore, le serveur peut être configuré pour servir arbitrairement une variante spécifique de la ressource en cas d'échec de la négociation.
