Michael Nygaard What is the mistake in this sentence:"The exciting [ ] about this job is that I will be working with the latest technology" Yes, there is a problem in this sentence. As written, there is a noun missing in your sentence. "Exciting" is used as an adjective which needs to be followed by a noun, like exciting "thing", and aspect etc.

The exciting thing about this job is that I will be working with the latest technology.

I was about to remark on the ending as it seems incomplete...latest technology (gadgets,or something in particular ?) but the post above pretty much clears up the picture.
