Summary
The phrase “我很想他们很多” is grammatically understandable but unnatural in Chinese because “很想” already expresses intensity; adding “很多” is redundant. In natural spoken Chinese, emotional statements are usually concise and rhythmically balanced. Use “我觉得很难过，也很想他们” to sound fluent and emotionally authentic.

Summary
The phrase “我最近很想他们很多” repeats the idea of “a lot” twice, which sounds unnatural in Chinese. In natural speech, “很想他们” already expresses strong emotion, so adding “很多” is redundant. Use concise emotional expressions like “我最近很想他们” or “我最近特别想他们” for a more fluent and native tone.
我听得出来你对他还有很多思念，这种想念最强的时候通常是在什么时候呢？
I can tell you still miss them a lot. When does this longing feel the strongest for you?

Summary
The original sentence is understandable but sounds incomplete and slightly unnatural in Chinese. The phrase “我觉孤单” should be “我觉得孤单” to be grammatically correct. In natural spoken Chinese, adding “会” makes the sentence sound smoother and more conversational.
