Acerca de かと思ったら・かと思うと

When the adverbial particle か is combined with と, the う-Verb (おも)う, and either of the hypothetical markers たら or と, it forms a compound that is used to illustrate uncertainty about whether (A) has been finalized or not. In most cases, this translates as '(A), then again (B)', 'just when I thought (A), (B)', or 'no sooner than (A), (B)'. Literally, the meaning is close to 'before (A) could even be confirmed as having happened, (B)'.

かと(おも)うと and かと(おも)ったら will regularly appear after verbs in either their dictionary or past-tense forms.

Alternatively, this structure may also be seen following nouns, especially when the meaning is focused on the speaker's feelings about (A).

Either なの (or の when used with verbs) may appear between the target phrase and かと(おも)ったら when the (B) phrase includes the speaker's feelings.

Caution

Occasionally, か may be omitted from this phrase, leaving only (おも)うと and (おも)ったら. Although the meaning is exactly the same, omission of the か will make the expression sound softer.
