宾语从句的用法疑问(好像有多余无用的分成)

Children will abide by what their parents sincerely believe is right.

这句宾语从句what their parents sincerely believe is right.

what their parents sincerely believe 已经是一个名词性句子了，还再加一个 is right。这种情况符合语法吗？

句意：家长真诚相信是正确的决定，孩子们是会遵循的。

这里的abide by是短语动词，意为“遵守；遵循；服从”，what their parents sincerely believe is right是名词性从句作宾语。又如：

You must abide by your promise.你必须遵守诺言。《21世纪英汉汉英双向词典》

You must abide by what you have said.你说话要算数。《简明英汉词典》

Children will abide by what their parents sincerely believe is right.

【答】这里面没有定语从句，what 跟their parents sincerely believe 无关。what is right 是名词性从句，作介词by 的宾语。

实际上，what their parents sincerely believe is right 是个混杂式名词性从句。

their parents sincerely believe 实际是what is right 的主语从句，或者说：what is right 是believe 的宾语从句。
