(Submitted to Acta Mathematica Sinica (English Series))
In the context of a symmetric diffusion process X admitting a carré du champs
operator, we give a precise description of the Dirichlet form of the process obtained
by subjecting X to a drift transformation of gradient type.
This description relies on boundary-type conditions restricting an
associated reflecting Dirichlet form.
