The ignition switch sends voltage through a fuse and maybe a relay, through t switch in the transmission (or clutch) that checks the gear to the starter solenoid which clicks. That's the sound of the solenoid connecting large contacts that can handle the large amount of current needed to start the car. What part of that scenario is missing? Can you hear the click? Is the linkage, clutch or their corresponding switches activating/bad? There can also be a click if there's a relay, but usually the click from the start solenoid is usually loud enough that you'd hear it. The large solenoid contacts get burnt in time and it needs to be replaced; even though they're large they get burnt from carrying such a heavy current through them.
