Answer 1

First of all you never use "sueño with estar, always with tener.

Mis hermanos tienen sueño.

This is a "tener expression" and the adjective with tener in these expresions is never changed.

If you were to use "cansado"witch also means tired, you would say:

Mis hermanos están cansados.

With ser and estar and descripions you always change the adjective:

Ella está cansada / él está cansado / ellos están casados / ellas están casadas

If you don't understand this ask, and I will try and explain better. I hope this helped.

Answer 2

It sounds like you are trying to conjugate a verb. If you are trying to say: "my brothers dream" the correct translation would be:

Mis hermanos sueñan (con...) = my brothers dream (about).

The verb "soñar (con)" means "to dream (about)"

Sueño is a masculin noun that means "dream", so it stays masculin. If it were an adjective, it could become either masculin of feminine:

un buen amigo - a good friend (masculin) una buena amiga - a good friend (feminine)

Hope this helps!
