>From Julian on bug 24661 comment 6:
"""
It looks like xgettext does not like ES6 template literals.

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?50920

>From what I understand, support for template literals was added in gettext 0.20
(still not packaged in debian) but is still buggy in latest released version
0.20.1 and a fix is present in master.
"""

We should not use backticks ` in .js file, it breaks xgettext.
