        That just makes more water, not wet water. Water cannot give a property to itself (wetness) that it, by definition, can only give to other things.

          So a frozen cube of water can by your description get wet with the water when put in a glass of said water.

            What you are describing, is ice, a solid, not simply water, which is a liquid. This changes this scenario.

            No, not really. Water needs to adhere to the surface of the solid and water doesn’t adhere to a cube of ice, so no.

              Water wets on to ice. It’s a verb. For a physical effect. That does happen to water.

              If you want to be pedantic, be correct.

          I’m joking. Calm down, get a good calming wet shower.

          I hadn’t even downvoted you, and now you made me.
