Ahh okay, I think I get what you’re getting at. It’s like how if you dry off after a shower, your towel is damp and not wet because you’re just looking at saturation.

Yep, you put it better than I did! Even if the air is fully humid, you're still not wet, as there won't be liquid water on you. Once there's enough to actually form liquid water, you'll be wet.

I’d be surprised if other languages call the air “wet” because that’s an English word. In Chinese, we’d call humidity 湿度 which means “degree of wet”.

Fair point, I didn't know about Chinese. I was talking about other languages I know, none of which refer to humidity as wetness (in the respective language obviously), they all use separate words.
