Spark Scala - how to use $"col" and S string interpolation together?

Question

I want to achieve this, with a $ instead of col()

val x = "id"
df.select(col(s"$x"))

This gives me an error

df.select($s"$x") 

But this works -- How is it working without the s prefix? And is this the correct way?

df.select($"$x") 

Thanks.
