Yes. The singular form is en bror (a brother). To make it plural, the vowel changes to ø and it adds an ending to become brødre. Several family-related words in Danish have irregular plurals like this.

No, Danish verbs are very simple in the present tense. They do not change depending on who is doing the action. Whether it is jeg (I), hun (she), or vi (we), the verb is always har.
