I am involved in a running debate in another place and would be delighted to hear your thoughts.
The Italian word 'panini' means, to an Italian, more than one panino, but to a Brit it means one panino.
I maintain that 'panini' has been absorbed into English to mean one of THESE, but panino does not exist in English.

Re: Panini
Agree Bob. I have never seen the word panino on an Australian menu and that includes at an Italian restaurant.

Re: Panini
No panino here - just panini. But I haven't seen one in the wild for ages. I don't know if it's because I don't go to the right restaurants, or if they aren't as popular as they used to be.
