There is not really an alternative to fish sauce that will produce the same taste. However, depending on the dish you are making, some substitutions that may work include: Thai thin soy sauce, coconut or soy aminos, vegetable broth and salt, or just salt.

They would use a fish sauce
The fish sauce is a heterogeneous material.
Using a fish knife and fork is different to the manner in which one uses a dinner (meat) knife and fork, although they are held in the same way. When eating fish the fish knife is used to "separate" the "segments" of the meat, slipping the blade into the fish at the break and lifting it slightly sideways to separate it from the skin and the other meat, so that you can pierce the meat with the fork and lift it cleanly to your mouth. A fillet of fish is eaten from left to right, using the right hand side of the plate for discarded bones and skin unless a "bones plate" is provided. Place the "bones plate", touching your fish plate, above and slightly to the right. Separate the segments individually only when you wish to take them with your fork and if the sauce is placed upon the plate you can use the knife to lift the sauce and place it upon the fish portion before you eat it, do not "swirl" or "dip" the fish on your fork in the sauce. If the sauce is provided in a separate container, bring it to where it is touching your fish plate and use your knife to take the sauce and place it upon the fish before you bring it to your mouth.
