Using imports conditionally without import()

This may sound weird but I need to use imports in a conditional way and without using await import() .

Here's a quick example, lets say I have this code:

import { en } from './langs/en.json';
import { fr } from './langs/fr.json';

And I want to conditionally use en or fr.
Something like:

const selectedLang = "en";
const lang = global[selectedLang];

Is there a way of doing so?
I know that under the browser all global variables are stored in the window object.
But it is not the case with this library.

import module javascript

You could use plain old require for this:

const selectedLang = "en";
const lang = require(`./langs/${selectedLang}.json`);
