For every inverse semigroup S with subsemigroup E of idempotents, necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for the weighted semigroup algebra $l^1(S,{\omega})$ and its second dual to be $l^1(E)$-module amenble. Some results for the module Arens regularity of $l^1(S,{\omega})$ (as an $l^1(E)$-module) are found. If S is either of the bicyclic inverse semigroup or the Brandt inverse semigroup, it is shown that $l^1(S,{\omega})$ is module amenable but not amenable for any weight ${\omega}$.
