Could be many factors: leaking clutch master cylinder, clutch line, air in the system, or the slave cylinder.
Cheapest route for you right now is to look for any apparent leakage starting from the clutch master cylinder down to the slave cylinder. After that if there's no visual leakage you can see, start bleeding the system of air and of course replace the old hydro fluid with new hydro fluid. If you want to do all this correctly I HIGHLY recommend you get a helms manual. It is the factory manual which all honda factory techincan use to fix hondas and acuras. Basically it's the bible for honda.
