    Had to Google this cause my English isn't that good, and now I know something new that my brain is filing under 'why does anyone know this?'

      There are very few common words/expressions that use plural postpositive adjective. To add to what NephewAlphaBravo said - "wrong" will sound right to most Americans. The average American reads at a sixth grade level.

      A correct form is "attorneys general" but that's rare. The average American would say "attorney generals".

        I just do it randomly for fun if the singular is a double noun. Suns day. Generals Store. It's very silly. I giggle inside.

      It's pretty useless tbf, one of those things that native english speakers wouldn't even notice if you got it "wrong"
