could be the synchro`s in the tranny

or you could have air in the line to the slave cylinder (unlikely though)

sounds like clutch

unless your slave or master cylinder are leaking, check for fluid on your firewall under the drivers dash

if not and you can see the slave cyylinder moving, prolly a spring came loose on your clutch, same thing happend to me, had to push the gear in to get it to go

It could be a clutch or the throw out bearing, which would mean a clutch job anyways.
