Weathering from mechanical and chemical means is the process that causes rocks to become smaller and smaller; wind, rain, the sun, the freeze/thaw cycle, moving glaciers, chemical reactions, and gravity are some of the causes of weathering.

The process that breaks down granite into sediments is weathering.
all the mechanical and chemical that breaks down rock
Weathering, which is caused by water, ice, wind and sun.
The process called weathering is responsible for the breaking up and wearing away of the Earth's rocks. The broken up rocks are then carried away by the process of erosion.

The process that breaks down rock above the earths surface are numerous and could be generally reffered to as Exogenous Processes, they include, Weathering, Denudation and Mass-wasting.
Erosion breaks down a metamorphic rock then the particles get deposited and get cemented or compacted together forming a sedimentary rock.
i think it might be called weathering but I'm not really sure...
