Baw-Stun. Boston. I am pretty sure that is how you say it.
I say Que-pon for coupon. I car Car-mel for caramel, I think out of laze.
I do say New-erk or New-irk. I think it's the same.
Norfolk I say Nor-fulk. I'm not from there, but... yeah, it is supposed to be said like; Norfolk (/ˈnɔːrfᵿk/ nor-fək, local /ˈnɒfʊk/ nof-uuk). That last one is like no-fuk.
Portland I say correct, though sometimes the 'a' sounds like an 'i.' So Port-lind.
I say Groh-shery store.

Stream is a small narrow river.
Creek is a minor tributary of a river.
Crick is basically a creek.
And rivers are a large stream of water flowing into a channel to the sea or lake or other body of water.
There are differences

I call it a "pop" or "soda." Sometimes I even just call it a "coke."
