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.
