but if I want operate many column, I want use List.Transform({columnName1, columaname2},(t)=> operate(Table, [t]).

If you can explain what exactly you are trying to do, then experts here can suggest the right solution.
When you are doing List.Transform({columnName1, columaname2},(t)=>, it is t which contains columnName1 & 2 one by one and whatever you are operating on t will be applicable on columnName1 & 2.
[t] , the t is only as a str, not as a var.

List.Transform({Column1,Column2},each List.Sum(Table.Column(tbl,_)))
