Are people more likely to use words they've heard recently in conversation?

Psychology & Neuroscience Asked by Ryan Lafferty on April 14, 2021

I have noticed before that if I use a somewhat uncommon word like "doubtlessly" in conversation, my conversation partner is more likely to say the word again later.
Am I falling prey to a frequency illusion or is this a real phenomenon?
I would be interested if anyone knows any research or studies on this subject.
