I don't understand what the quiz is asking for. An "empty if statement"?.

In object literal excercise it is asking for en empty if statement using dot notation to see who's turn is next. I need a statement to see who is next. Here is my code but it gets bounced. I tried many things but there is no answer for me to refer to.

const player1 = { name: 'Ashley', color: 'purple', isTurn: true, play: function() { if (this.isTurn === true) console.log ("next player"); } }; player1.play();

An empty if statement has a condition and nothing else, like this:

if (this.isTurn){}

Thank you. I guess I was just getting ahead of the question.
