Which are the fundamental stack manipulation operations?

I’m creating a stack oriented virtual machine, and so I started learning Forth for a general understanding about how it would work. Then I shortlisted the essential stack manipulation operations I would need to implement in my virtual machine:

I’m having a hard time understanding the difference between an emulation virtual machine and a language vm. I started with the research and implementation of an emulation virtual machine. Primarily emulating quite old 16-bit architectures.
