Well let me elaborate the difference between disable & uninstall Joomla component first.
Uninstall component means to remove the component from the Joomla site. If you don't want to use a component in your Joomla site then you have to uninstall it.
Disable component means you are not interested in the component right now but may be in future you want to use it, in such situation you have to disable it.
In short Joomla just restricts the disabled components from showing the output. Whenever you want to use the disabled component you just need to enable it.
Doing this doesn't require coding, there is option for this at the backend. Here is the image. When i wanted to disable the component first time, then i was wondering that i need to make the change in coding.

How to override Joomla's language files
Wanted to override language file in joomla, as usual i googled little bit & got somewhere that 'just place language files in html folder of selected template'. I did but it didn't worked for me. Actually, the solution is to create a folder language(name must be language) inside that create another folder en-GB (most of the time we work on English but might be change) & insert the language file which you want to override (copy file from your root folder/langauge/en-GB) & make the changes whatever you want in the file, but wait work is not done yet.
You need to install this plugin .(its correctly worked for me thats why i am suggesting) & enabled it. Fianlly joomla language file has been overriden.
