“Myriad” in Gideon the Ninth and now Harrow the Ninth. It cropped up about halfway through the first book and was used half a dozen times in ~200 pages. I just started the second book but I’ve seen it a couple times already. The word “racine” has also been repeated, less often but really noticeable because I was unfamiliar and it wasn’t in the onboard dictionary. From context, I think the book uses it as an adjective meaning “root-like,” which is not a readily apparent definition.
