Definition
得益 (dé yì) means 'to benefit from' and is often used in the pattern '从...中得益' (benefit from something). It is very close to 受益 (shòu yì), but 得益 can emphasize the process of deriving benefit, while 受益 focuses on receiving the benefit. 享 (xiǎng) is more about enjoying privileges, and 造福 (zào fú) is for benefiting large groups long-term.
