I think you misunderstand. Allow me to clarify my intended sentence:
"Hon och han och hen."
There is more than simply "he" and "she," and Swedish is one of a number of languages that is beginning to more fully acknowledge that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hen_(pronoun)

och is always one syllable, yes. In normal speech, you usually don't hear the k at the end, unless someone speaks slowly or gives the word extra emphasis.
