I don't understand. Do you mean "listen to" as in "hear the opinion of" or as in "obey"?

- loco5niner 8y ago"hear the opinion of" would be the normal interpretation (US English), especially when "listen to" is followed by "what [they] have to say about it". I struggle to understand in what context "obey" would make sense.
- Glyptodon 8y ago"listen to" is commonly used as a form of follow/obey in vernacular English. "Listen to Bob, he knows what he is doing." At minimum it frequently connotes more than just listening.
- loco5niner 8y agoGood point. That is a different context I hadn't thought of.
