Okay, I’m just going to guess what you want.

It sounds like you’re trying to do something like this:

`this is a ${if (Math.random() > 0.5) {
  return "good"
}
return "bad"
} string`

Which doesn’t work, because the placeholders inside ${} must be a single expression.

function goodOrBad() {
  if (Math.random() > 0.5) {
    return "good"
  }
  return "bad"
}

// this works
`this is a ${goodOrBad()} string`

// this works (but ternaries are hard to read)
`this is a ${Math.random() > 0.5 ? "good" : "bad"} string`
