Anything wet can impart wetness to other solid materials by releasing a portion of its held liquid. A sponge is wet because it contains, holds, is covered in, or adheres water or another liquid, and can make other things wet by imparting some of its held liquid to that other material.
The act of having water or another similar liquid on, in, or adhering to a solid is what makes that solid wet.

I guess really cold water isn’t really “wet” per-se. What did I just write…
The truth! Water is not wet, it is a liquid that imparts the property of “wet” to other objects
Anything wet can impart wetness to other things. That’s like saying a sponge isn’t wet because it makes other things wet.
The properties of water are what make something wet, so water isn’t NOT wet—water is 100% wetness. It’s the wettest anything can be.
