I'm using Element UI library in Vue.
I have a set of two radio buttons, and also a dropdown list that need to share the same data. I have everything working as expected however when the user selects one of the radio buttons the dropdown is displaying that value.

My end goal is to have the dropdown display the placeholder text unless of course a dropdown value is selected. Possibly a watcher to check if radios are selected and then update dropdown?

<template>
  <div>
    <el-radio-group ref="selfLanguage" v-model="formData.selfLanguage">
      <ol>
        <li class="radio-list-item">
          <el-radio
            id="selfLanguageEnglish"
            label="English"
            name="selfLanguage"
            class="radio--bold"
          />
        </li>

        <li class="radio-list-item">
          <el-radio
            id="selfLanguageSpanish"
            label="Spanish"
            name="selfLanguage"
            class="radio--bold"
          />
        </li>
      </ol>
    </el-radio-group>

    <el-form-item
      prop="selfLanguage"
      :show-message="false"
      class="form-item--select el-form-item--dropdown"
    >
      <label for="selfLanguage" class="font--primary title-3 font--bold mb-6">
        Other
      </label>

      <el-select
        ref="selfLanguageDropdown"
        v-model="formData.selfLanguage"
        name="selfLanguage"
        class="select-box"
        prop="selfLanguageOther"
        placeholder="Please select one"
        :popper-append-to-body="false"
      >
        <el-option label="French" value="french"></el-option>
        <el-option label="Russian" value="russian"></el-option>
        <el-option label="Italian" value="italian"></el-option>
      </el-select>
    </el-form-item>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  watch: {
    'formData.selfLanguage'(newVal, oldVal) {
      if (newVal === 'English' || newVal === 'Spanish') {
        // possibly reset the dropdown or have it display the placeholder text rather than data value
      }
    },
  },
}
</script>
