What is the difference between a priest, a friar and a monk?

[DameAgnes]

No surprises here, although I hadn't considered that a Jesuit or a Salesian is a religious but not a monk or friar.

Okay and what is a Brother?

The article says secular priests take vows of chastity, but isn't there a distinction made between a secular priest's "promise" of chastity and a religious' "vow"? Or am I making that up?

You are correct.  Iirc, secular priests actually promise celibacy (since we're all called to the virtue of chastity), whereas the religious vow it.

Isn't a brother a friar?

Just like... anglicized?
