How can different robots.txt files be generated for multiple language versions of a website using PHP?

To generate different robots.txt files for multiple language versions of a website using PHP, you can create a PHP script that dynamically generates the robots.txt file based on the language version requested by the user. This can be achieved by using conditional statements to determine the language version and output the corresponding rules for that version in the robots.txt file. 

```php
<?php
// Set the language version based on the user's request or any other logic
$language = isset($_GET['lang']) ? $_GET['lang'] : 'en';

// Output the appropriate robots.txt rules based on the language version
header("Content-Type: text/plain");

if ($language == 'en') {
    echo "User-agent: *\n";
    echo "Disallow: /private\n";
} elseif ($language == 'fr') {
    echo "User-agent: *\n";
    echo "Disallow: /prive\n";
} else {
    echo "User-agent: *\n";
    echo "Disallow: /";
}
```

This code snippet demonstrates how you can dynamically generate different robots.txt files for multiple language versions of a website using PHP. It sets the language version based on the user's request or any other logic, and then outputs the corresponding rules for that language version in the robots.txt file.
