C#: Nested If else condition in LINQ

I am using below LINQ Query, now i want to if else condition inside LINQ Query like below- how i can achieve the same ?

    if(stemming)
    highlightedText = c.Value.p_content != null && c.Value.p_content[0] != null ? c.Value.p_content[0] : string.Empty
    if(phoentic)
    highlightedText = c.Value.s_content != null && c.Value.s_content[0] != null ? c.Value.s_content[0] : string.Empty
    if(content)
    highlightedText = c.Value.content != null && c.Value.content[0] != null ? c.Value.content[0] : string.Empty

Complete code - 

    var highlightedDataLst = objJson.highlighting.Select(c =>
    new finalOutput
    {
        highlightedKey = c.Key,                                   
        highlightedText = c.Value.content != null && c.Value.content[0] != null ? c.Value.content[0] : string.Empty
  }).ToList<finalOutput>();

Hmm taking a stab at it, it might look something like this:

var highlightedDataLst = objJson.highlighting.Select(c =>
new finalOutput
    {
        highlightedKey = c.Key,                                   
        highlightedText = (stemming ? c.Value.p_content?[0] : 
                          (phoentic ? c.Value.s_content?[0] :
                          (content  ? c.Value.content?[0] : null))) ?? ""
}).ToList<finalOutput>();

You can simplify your conditions using the null conditional operator (?[]) and null coalescing operators (??).
