Ok you need to fix a few grammar mistakes so I can understand the question better, but it sounds like either your transmission fluid is low. Can you pump the clutch and it shift into gear normally?

How much pressure are you feeling on your clutch pedal? Check clutch fluid level, and look for leaks on your Clutch Master Cylinder and Clutch Slave Pump. I have this car and experienced the same issues due to a damaged slave pump first and then a clutch master cylinder. Please rewrite your question.
