How to disable input method

Question

By using toggle-input-method, I can disable input method when that is active.

But sometimes I just want to disable it regardless the input method status. I couldn't find the function for it. How can I do it?

I don't understand. You can't disable it if it's not enabled. If it is enabled, toggle-input-method disables it. (deactivate-input-method) is what the toggle command calls when it disables it. That's a plain function rather than a command; but provided it's safe to call at any time, you could write a little wrapper command for it if you particularly want one. — phils, Jun 29, 2016 at 5:01
Sorry, maybe that's matter of my poor English. I want to keep it disabled when it's disabled. In the case like this the word disable is not fit, right? Thanks for advice. — ironsand, Jun 29, 2016 at 6:47

M-x find-function toggle-input-method to read its source code,

(defun toggle-off-input-method ()
  (interactive)
  (if current-input-method (deactivate-input-method)))
