Talk:Lieutenants General

Can I see some supporting evidence for this entry? I don't believe that making a plural out of "Lieutenant" is correct. This is not like "Attorneys General". Lieutenant is the adjective here, not the noun. 71.236.136.184 23:31, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
 * A Google Books search for "lieutenants general" returns well over 8,000 hits. It may not make sense, but it's in use, so we have to keep it. If you have evidence that the usage is considered wrong (other than by just you), then feel free to add or  ("nonstandard" means that most speakers would consider it as wrong, while "proscribed" means that some educator, authority or authoritative source considers it wrong).

 * Interesting. Well, at least Google agrees with me: "Did you mean: "lieutenant general"" Thanks anyhow. 71.236.136.184 21:51, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
