The singer confirmed her claim she had made to the media  where  she said she would not leave the band.

her claim she had made to the media  where  she said she would not leave the band.名词her claim被双重定语从句修饰。she had made to the media前省略了作宾语的关系代词that,先行词为her claim. where(=in which)从句为没有用逗号的非限制性定语从句(where前可以加逗号),其先行词为her claim she had made to the media. 这二个定语从句不在一个层次上。

按字面直译为:这位歌手确认了他对媒体发布的声明,在这个声明中他说他不会离开这个乐队。

我跟曹老师的分析不同。

1. she had made to the media ,是her claim 的定语从句。关系代词被省略,意为:她向媒体发表的(声明)

2. where she said she would not leave the band, 是the media 的定语从句。插入she said 后作为双重定语从句,修饰the media,用where 指代把the media, 看作广义的地点状语。


【翻译】这位歌手确认了媒体发布的声明,在媒体上不会离开这只乐队。

The singer (主语)//confirmed(谓语动词)// her claim(宾语)// (定语从句)she had made to the media //(修饰名词“her claim”的定语从句) where she said she would not leave the band.

参考译文:这位歌手证实了她向媒体发表的声明,她说她不会离开乐队。
