David's answer is good, but you wrote "no sense" not "nonsense". Something makes no sense if it is it illogical or unreasonable. --Your argument makes no sense. --Buying a new car makes no sense if you are already in debt. We also say that a person has no sense if he is foolish. --George W. Bush has no sense.

Something is "nonsense" if it is absurd or ridiculous. Something is "senseless" if it has no meaning or explanation. We would say that a statement is "nonsense" if we disagree with it: "the Senator's speech is nonsense." We often say that something is "senseless" if it is horrible: "the senseless murder of a child."

They're not exactly the same. Example: Your idea makes no sense. Verses. It's senseless to keep arguing about this, we just don't agree.
