尽可能博采众长，以丰富自己的文艺创作。“转益”意为辗转自益，只要对自己创作有益的东西都应该加以学习吸收；“多师”谓广泛师法，不必专于一家。出自唐代诗人杜甫（712—770）的《戏为六绝句》。它包含相互联系的两个方面：其一，尽可能广泛学习、师法古人或时贤的创作经验，博采众长，兼收并蓄；其二，在无所不师的同时既有继承也要有所批判。只有这样，才能合乎或接近《诗经》的风雅传统，形成自己的艺术风格。后来这一术语的使用范围由诗歌创作而扩展至文学艺术等各个领域。

The expression means to learn widely from others so as to enrich one's own artistic creation. Zhuanyi (转益) means to learn and absorb everything that can further one's creativity; duoshi (多师) means to learn from many teachers. This comes from 'Six Playful Quatrains' by Du Fu (712-770) of the Tang Dynasty. There are two related meanings in this term: 1) learn from the experience and skills of all masters, past and present; and 2) while learning and carrying on the best, also be discerning, so as to approach or conform to the traditions of meaning and form as expressed in 'The Book of Songs,' and then develop one's own poetic style. The later came to include not just poetry but also literature and art.

引例 Citation：

◎未及前贤更勿疑，递相祖述复先谁？别裁伪体亲风雅，转益多师是汝师。（杜甫《戏为六绝句》其六）

浅薄之辈不及前贤这点不必怀疑，代代继承前人为何区分谁先谁后？甄别去除繁杂不纯的诗歌而直接亲近《诗经》的风雅传统，多方师法、博采众长，才是真正对你有益的老师。

Superficial men are clearly not the equal of past masters; why would one mind who was the first to pass on the tradition? Discard the poorly written and learn from 'The Book of Songs.' And learning from many past masters means you've found the right teacher. (Du Fu: Six Playful Quatrains)
