Exegesis
The verse opens with polloi {πολλοί | polloí} ‘many’ as the nominative subject, followed immediately by the enclitic connector te {τε | te}, which links this statement closely to the preceding narrative while adding a slightly emphatic, additive force (“and in fact many…”).
In context — Acts 19:18
And many of those who had believed came, confessing and declaring their deeds .
