Water isn't wet. Wetness is a description of our experience of water; what happens to us when we come into contact with water in such a way that it impinges on our state of being. We, or our possessions, 'get wet'. A less impinging sense experience of water is that it is cold or warm, while visual experience tells us that it is green or blue or muddy or fast-flowing. We learn by experience that a sensation of wetness is associated with water: 'there must be a leak/I must have sat in something.'

It's not that fish are dry. But that our understanding of wet is based on not being in water, but being in air. When you get out of a pool, you are described as wet. ... Because humans created language, our language is based on being land animals who exist surrounded in air, not water.
