The full sentence is:




何なにもかも手てにした気きでいたんだ




For now I think 何もかも手にした comes from 何もかも手にする 'to obtain just about everything / almost everything' but I can't understand the purpose of the rest and how it changes the meaning of the phrase.

  • why "just about" "almost"?  「何もかも」"anything and everything"

  • 'Anything and everything' was one of the two definitions that Jisho.org provided. The other one was 'Just about everything' which did more sense in the context.

  • hee.. 何もかも means すべて, 全部... So "just about everything" "almost everything" can also mean すべて?

  • So It would correct to say that 何もかも手にした means "I've got everything"? if that's correct how does 気でいたんだ change the sentence's meaning?

~~した気でいる means "to (keep/stay) think/imagine/feel/(ing) that one did~~". (≂ ~~したつもりでいる) (cf. 「~~した気になる」 "to think/feel/imagine one did~~", 「~~のつもりでいる」 "to fancy oneself as~~")



何もかも手にする means "to gain/obtain (anything and) everything".



So 何もかも手にした気でいたんだ literally means "I thought/imagined that I had obtained everything."
