Haml: Control whitespace around text

Question

In my Rails template, I\'d like to accomplish final HTML to this effect using HAML:

I will first link somewhere         


        

Answer 1

Once approach I've taken to this sort of thing is to use string interpolation:

I will first #{link_to 'Link somewhere'}#{', then render this half of the sentence if a condition is met' if condition}

I don't like the look of the literal string in the interpolation, but I've used it with previously declared strings or dynamically generated strings before.
