In that case Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce should be a close analog.

Fella I know spent two years in Vietnam back when the bullets were flying.
He told us about a fish sauce that every Vietnamese made at home. IIRC he called it Nuoc Mam.
Sounds like a sister to garum?

Oh, hell no-not the dreaded fish sauce-is there any Roman recipe without it? I suppose you’d use that awful Asian fish sauce as a modern equivalent...
