What's The Difference Between A Wet And Dry Ink? - Q&A Slices

I hear the reference to "wet" inks and "dry" inks. What determines wet or dry? Every ink I've come across has been liquid and very wet :) Could you give a brand level description of wet and dry inks?

all FP inks are water-based, so they're all "wet", really
it's like how some wines are considered "dry"
it has to do with how much it flows onto the page
Pelikan 4001 inks are generally referred to as the driest of inks
most other brands are varied, and up for a lot of debate as to what's wet and dry
it's more nuanced, about specific inks really
wetter inks usually have longer dry times
Aurora ink is considered very wet, same with Noodler's Eel
you may want to sample and experiment
