The reading ちゅうちょ uses the standard on'yomi for both 躊 (ちゅう) and 躇 (ちょ). Both kanji contain the 足 (foot) radical, symbolizing hesitant steps. Incorrect readings like ちゅうじょ mispronounce 躇. It means to hesitate or waver, showing indecision and delaying action due to uncertainty or reluctance.
躊 (ちゅう) も 躇 (ちょ) も標準的な音読み。足(あし)へんが示すように、足踏みして進まない様子を表します。ためらうこと、決断を迷うことです。
