Which, in French, is “citoyen” (masculine) or “citoyenne” (feminine). Not a neutral gendered word.
Comment on Is there a title (Mr/Ms/Mrs) that is gender neutral?

Not a contemporary one, but during the French Revolution, they used ‘Citizen’ for everyone.

Well, it depends. Some nouns are epicene, like “enfant” or “adulte” (“un/une enfant/adulte”). Many adjectives are: “rapide”, solide", “mobile”…

But it is gender neutral in English, the language OP was asking about.
