See more:

Java

string reverse(string word){
string temp = "";
if(word.length() > 1){
temp = word.substr(word.length()-1, word.length());
temp += reverse(word.substr(0, word.length()-1));
}
else
return word;

so far I've got...

I suggest you first rewrite the Java implementation because it's awful. Really really awful; it must have been written by a rank amateur. Or ignore that particular Java code and start fresh.
You might also simply do an Internet search for "python string reverse".

Just a one line code to reverse the string in python. Read the documentation[^]

Python

s[::-1]
'dcba'
# where s was 'abcd' and then it is voila

Or without using it:

def reverse(test):
    n = len(test)
    x=""
    for i in range(n-1,-1,-1):
        x += test[i]
    return x

Though you can find certain help on this thread[^].
