Exegesis
The participle akouōn {ἀκούων | a-koú-ōn} “listening” agrees with laos and functions as a circumstantial participle of manner, describing how the people were attached. English translations keep the main clause structure and render the participle with “as they listened” to reflect its ongoing sense, while preserving the causal link introduced by gar.
In context — Luke 19:48
And they were not finding what they could do, for all the people were hanging on Him as they listened to Him.
