Panino is Italian for sandwich, it literally means small bread.
Panini is something I first experienced in France, where it's made with a special semi-raw bread. I've never seen anything quite like it in Italy, though.
- monkeynotes 13y agoPanini and Panino are pretty much synonymous. Panini is just the anglicized word, although it seems the Italians don't generally grill them. I've had Panini/Panino in Italy, France, the UK, and Canada. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panini_(sandwich) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panini_(sandwich)
- hussong 13y agoI'll bite: panini is simply the plural of panino.
- carlob 13y agoGrammatically, yes. But it's really a different type of sandwich outside of Italy.
