Why can "they do not have much to read" not be translated as " ils n'ont pas beaucoup à lire"? Why must it be "grand-chose" instead?

Google Translate allows it.

This page offers it in several examples:: https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english-french/much

It seems they are equally valid alternatives.

why has the little French keyboard disappeared?Hi When I use Kwiziq on my phone and type my answers, there's no longer any access to the French keyboard so have to rely on Google's voice programme le I need to add accents. Not very reliable. Could you reinstate the keyboard please ? Thanks. Diane

Remarquer et constater

I used constater to say I noticed the strange transaction. It’s not offered as an alternative to remarquer. Can you tell me if it is wrong to use it in this case.

Why "dans le frigo" instead of "du frigo?"One takes the beer not *in* the fridge but *from* the fridge, which should be "de", shouldn't it?
