Most likely: Bad bendex spring or starter solenoid. May be replaceable independently, but frequently integral part of starter. But, before anything else just make sure all your connections, including those at the battery, are clean and tight.
The starter is stuck or apparently engaged, replace the starter to eliminate your problem.
== == Try tapping on the solenoid(smaller cylinder attached to starter) while someone tries to start it. If it starts then the solenoid is bad and the entire starter solenoid needs to be replaced.

I means you have a battery problem or a starter problem or dirty/loose battery cable connections. If the battery is operating the starter and the starter is turning the engine over but the engine won't start and run, you may have a spark problem or a fuel problem.
That depends upon what the starter problem is. If the battery is exhausted, you can use another vehicle's battery, with jumper cables.
