Automatic Grammar Agreement with an In-line If Statement

Text("I have ^[\(dogCount) dogs](inflect: true).")

The ^[\(dogCount) dogs](inflect: true) in the above string is an inflection rule implemented as a custom Markdown attribute.

For SwiftUI to parse any Markdown inside a string, it needs to treat it as a LocalizedStringKey.

So the solution is to assign your automatic grammar agreement string to a constant and specify the type:

let agreementString: LocalizedStringKey = "I have ^[\(dogCount) dogs](inflect: true)."

Then use it in your ternary statement:

Text(dogCount == 0 ? "No Dogs?!" : agreementString)

Here's the complete working code to try:

import SwiftUI

struct InlineGrammarAgreementView: View {

    //State values
    @State private var dogCount: Int = 0

    //Body
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Text("Adjust dogCount:")
                .font(.caption)

            //Stepper to modify dogCount
            Stepper("", value: $dogCount, in: 0...10)
                .labelsHidden()
                .fixedSize()
        }

        let agreementString: LocalizedStringKey = "I have ^[\(dogCount) dogs](inflect: true)."

        Text(dogCount == 0 ? "No Dogs?!" : agreementString)
            .padding(.top)

    }
}

    InlineGrammarAgreementView()
