Hi Donna,
The most common problems with an engine that will not start are lack of fuel in the tank, water in the fuel, the fuel pump not working or there is no spark for ignition.
Realistically, if you know little about engines you need help from a mechanic or someone with knowledge. The only quick try you could apply is to turn on the ignition, then thump the fuel tank with a rubber mallet or your fist. If the pump is stuck, this might jar it into action, but you still need a mechanic to repair or replace the pump, as it is inside the fuel tank.
Good luck.
Make sure that you car is completly in the park position, if your car is an automatic. The key will not be able to move out of the ignition if for instance something is blocking the shifter.
If your Hyundai, Tiburon refuses

the spark plugs look fine and the fuel injectors are running well, you
may need a new charging or starting system for your car. If the starting
system fails, then you need a new unit in order to get your Hyundai,
Tiburon back on the road. The starting system in your Hyundai, Tiburon
includes many parts such as the battery, ignition switch, starter motor
and solenoid. Once you have the source of the problem contained, you
have complete access to quality replacement parts here. Whether the
battery dies or the ignition switch fails, you can find the parts you
need for your Hyundai, Tiburon. Get your car back on the road when you
check out this selection of charging and starting systems for your car.
Very common problem in Tiburons for flashers to stick on. One solution (you can probably find detailed instructions newtiburon.com) is to replace the correct relay on the Body Control Module (bcm mentioned by q_tipj83). This is very hard. Much easier is to go online and find a salvage yard who has a BCM. I got one for $100, as opposed to $500 for a rebuilt one that is hard to find or $1000 at the dealer. they gave me a 90-day guarantee and everything has been fine with it. At the above prices, you could buy severl used BCMs and still come out ahead.
By the way, the BCM is the box to which theh under-dash fuzebox is attached.
