Best Answer

When a baby is first born, it is "all wet". As it is cleaned up a bit and gains a few days it is just "wet behind the ears". In either case, neither is qualified to have a full understanding of anything, being "too new to the scene" to actually know what's going on. No one expects such a person to know and understand.

Someone who neither knows, nor understands what is happening around them "is all wet". If they are simply naΓ―ve, they are "wet behind the ears", indicating they have some understanding, like that of a child, yet not enough to fare well when dealing with those who are fully understanding the situation.

It means you don't know what you're talking about; you are "wet behind the ears" or so naive that you believe things that are not true.

When you say someone is all wet, it means he doesn't know what he's talking about. Equivalent to "he's full of it."
