The use of "lhe" and "lhes" as indirect object forms of "você" and "vocês" (" you", plural and singular) is currently rare in General BP, where "lhe" is often replaced as noted above by "te" or, alternatively, by "para você". On the other hand, "lheísmo", i.e. the use of "lhe" not only as an indirect object (e.g. "Eu lhe dou meu endereço", "I will give you my address"), but also as a "direct object" (e.g. "Eu lhe vi na praia ontem", Eng. "I saw you at the beach yesterday") is frequent in Northeastern Brazilian dialects, especially in Bahia.
