Could it be a useful rule?
<!-- English rule, 2014-05-28 -->
<rule id="ID" name="a compete/complete">
<pattern>
<token regexp='yes'>a|an|the</token>
<token postag='VB|VBP' postag_regexp='yes'><exception postag='VB|VBP'
postag_regexp='yes' negate_pos='yes'></exception></token>
</pattern>
<message>Probably a bad construction: a/the + infinitive</message>
<example type='incorrect'><marker>a compete</marker> catastrophe an argue
in</example>
<example type='correct'>a complete catastrophe</example>
<example type='correct'>a show</example>
</rule>

Jaume Ortolà
